That's the Slippery Slope of Duality ~

in the congress of Love
only Loving is the Truth
and that's the Beauty of beholding
with a realEYEsed look that dares to see
that Truth like Beauty is relativity --

so, look 'n look 'n really see
with eyes the heart has seared with fire,
that passionate insanity on the sharp edge of desire
where the fool and saint are one and the same
as players in the play of this duality game --

promulgate your Truth as if a wave on the Sea
where waves all gather but disagree
yet often move from deepest blue
as if they were both me 'n you

such are these terms
of endearment made merry
with sounds that alliterate 'n show
the tender moments Lovers know

In infinite darkness an ancient ache cried out in a million quivering lights as if the night wept in stars --
