The Watcher
The watcher sees the two sides clash,
A certain feel of conscious thought,
Yet sets things free in either dash;
No need to will or order plot.
When all is still, and two sides rest,
Watcher feels truth in simple terms,
Watch conscious fill attend the quest;
Stillness hurls proof to speed the germ.
The watcher knows what outcomes bring,
Allows the surge of variant streams,
Yet sees the show in causal fling;
No need to merge in either dream.
When silence comes to lift the dance,
Watcher knows when to swirl and twirl,
Watch grace now sum beyond mere chance;
Stillness ascends to heal the world.
The watcher sights the path and quest,
A precious now frames the sure road,
Yet both sides fight with primal fest;
No need somehow to judge or load.
When joy and play ignite fond cheer,
Watcher finds way through ecstasy,
Watch middle way inspire most clear;
Stillness funds stay with harmony.
The watcher sees beyond two sides,
A special glow when judgement ends,
Yet soul sets free beyond the tides;
The watcher knows what ego trends.
When faith and hope find love on earth,
Watcher sees tact in wondrous whole,
Watch joy flood scope in grand re-birth;
Stillness primes fact in heart and soul.
