Contradiction [kon-truh-dik-shuh n]
-
Is not the great river
The perfect exhibition of stillness in motion?
Is not the water our greatest teacher
In a day and age when
The slightest disagreement
Seems to results in automatic altercation
Why is it we have been so conditioned
To be uncomfortable with opposition?
Unwilling to hold a pole in our mind
While also acknowledging the other side
The water is always flowing yet it is still too
I guess this is a notion one either can see or not
Just as the river’s ebb and flow
Is the greatest force man has ever known
Effortlessly moving any obstacle that falls in its path
