Can't Tell Anyone Why? Or Responses in Inquiry Crossing T's and Dotting I's



Black & White,
when separated in contrast,
diversified integrations taken as forecast,
Yin & Yan, good vs evil, right or wrong,
Does all polar opposites have the same impact.

Black and White, an abstract depending how it's used,
in Arts definition can be background to draw,
or the choosing of wearing one or the other
can hide or accentuate curve or flaws.

Just as the roads less taken,
they may not always be the easiest,
but doesn't it help savor satisfaction or moments
in lives that were the very best?

Anything nearly the same by principal or token,
what we value & those that help in struggle,
whether within or against the world,
as there are those like an intricate complex puzzle

There's not always a Rule as to Why?
instances like gravity to attract,
in contrary can also generate magnets
to deflect in a reversal of acts.

Like Fire and Ice........
Flames can melt away,
but it's water can also douse a blaze
is it just one or the other alone to say?'''''''''

Each holds different components, purposes,
who is anyone to deem an exclusive side.
just debatable opportunities,
that can always divide

"Choices Of Paths Taken

About this poem

I like speaking to "The Great Spirits" as it is with the silence I can connect, reconnect, realize what is convictions that aren't always changeable.
