Amidst Paradox


If paradox scares you,
 N’ makes your head spin,

Then make it a subject,
 Of your daily meditation.

Chart its two dots,
 In absolute opposition.

Then draw a line,
 Right between them.

A “line” but not,
 A literal geometric line.

Rather a string of ideas,
 Like beads along a necklace.

Perhaps, this string,
 Is not even really linear.

It may snake and curve,
Setting new dots on its way,

To expose pearly depths,
 Gleaming amidst paradox.

           ---o---

Your sweat is worth it!
 Your wisdom will glow radiant,

As each paradox,
  Signals an awaiting depth.
