Poem – Duality

One can listen but never learn.
Such souls are of great concern.

That is because they hide
Behind what they cannot abide.

But this choice is one that will not make the grade.
Only make one become a part of someone else’s parade.

Let yourself rot and become instead a wine.
Let yourself ferment and become something sublime.

Let go of youthful beauty as it flits away.
Do not be terrorized by times display.

The moment we are born … we also begin to die.
That is the nature of duality in a mind’s eye.
