Nor is it a bad place
But it is a domain in which good and bad things can happen...

struggling to breathe
the choking hold on my chest
your  hard words like bricks
bury me deeper
bearing the weight of your love
until I’m breath less...

May we be blessed to understand 
the beautiful dichotomy of our growth……

How some days we are the teachers…
some days we’re the students…
and some days..we are both.

Daring Dichotomy

We always did believe in a dichotomy;
Without God's love is like a lobotomy;
He can cure;
Know for sure,
And affected our reaction and memory.

May we be blessed to understand the dichotomies of time….
(For dichotomies is something time shall never lack!)
It’s free…yet it’s priceless
and once you’ve lost it…you can never get it back.

A Lovely Lobotomy

Did you know there is a dichotomy,
Of people who prefer a phlebotomy;
Are not really sure of point of view,
How they should separate the few,
Who would like a lovely lobotomy.

Solitary moments and the world stands still, 
While moving and changing.
Still and calm and as it ever was, 
Just more tangible, 
Malleable, 
Hopeful, 
Peaceful and chaotic, 
A paradox, 
A beautiful dichotomy...

Not Going To Deny

See if this sounds familiar?

I am not going
To deny that I never
Ever have seen him.

The dichotomy of the English
language is both interesting
yet perturbing at the same time.

Oh, to be the victim of the conflict you create in me,
Internal opposition from the masterful dichotomy, 
You beautiful confusion, you're the cause of chaos constantly,
And I rely on your command: you're both the best and beast in me....

One Thousand Toilet Faces…..By Peter Onyancha
(The dichotomy of my country)

One thousand people sharing one toilet
Save the people! Just one more.
One thousand toilets sharing one person
Save the toilet? Just one more.
The toilet or the person
just one more!...

If only women spoke their mystic minds, 
If only men could read between the lines - 
Weary walls, bifurcating sexes, would
Be more transparent, less misunderstood. 

No Venus/Mars dichotomy thereof, 
The only modus operandi - Love!

The tumults of organized lives,
Often brings happiness and strife,
As we crawl hastily to our eminent demise,
Without birth there would be no life,
Without life there would be no death,
Without you there is no us,
Life appears to be,
A random state of organized chaos....

The tumults of organized lives
Often brings happiness but sadly, much strife
As we crawl hastily to our eminent demise
We realize without birth there is no life
Without life, there is no death
Without you, there is no us
Life appears to be
A random state of organized chaos...

angels
                         pure, faithful 
              watching, helping, protecting
             messengers, spirits, traitors, fiends 
               cunning, plotting, scheming 
                         hateful, fallen
                             demons

My shadow was crying out to me
beyond all darkness and light
Saying that life is a trap in reverse
 caught between wrong and right

Dichotomy claims what polarity feigns
academics locking the gate
Where shadows crawl under what locks in our fear
—abandoning us to fate

The dreamer
Lies buried in the hemisphere
Like hominids nested in calcium
Upon outstretched shovel
Vermillion corridors pounce in theatrical unfolding
Its all shadows and graves say
Those cliffside with buckets of fear

While I clawed suddenly the dichotomy came clear
Now I'm hijacking lotuses from the other side...

Truth is lie.
Vice versa.
Versa vice.
The dichotomy divine.
A lie tats always true,
a truth that always lies.
The simple and complicated,
one and only,
undeniable rule of life.
Just as opposites can't exist apart.
We are only who we are,
if we are who we aren't.
Divine dichotomy.
Divine, divine, divine!...

patience exceeding the lost madness,
fighting the reign  -  angry insanity.
vying for control, a dichotomy.

losing to the end  -  ancient battles,
evolutionary inevitability,
the loss of knowledge,
the death of understanding is at hand.
we are glad to see it go,
waving goodbye with red-clotted sticks
and true love....

Physics and Philosophy come together
  in what they are not

Cause and causation are different
  in the absolute thought

The blocks can be built and ordered
  over and over again

But what gives each block tenure and presence
 —science only rescinds

Brass knuckles type of brave 
no promises but pure of heart;
No reason to care, the antihero;

Shadows blanket the antihero,
runs alone forced to be brave; 
Ice in their veins, reckless heart; 

Conflict tugs at the heart,
the dichotomy of the antihero;
Nothing to lose, not really brave;

The brave heart of the antihero....
