Duality

You can be lost in the light
as well as the dark.
In a landscape of total light
there are no contours.
It is the contrast with
others that helps us to identify ourselves.
Alone—we have no identity.
Investigate your polarities.

The shadow is in love
with the light of the sun.
It is attracted to its opposite.
The light is within—
and will only be sealed there
by darkness
if we fail to invoke
our inner sun.
Then the shadowland engulfs
and the dark mystery prevails.
