we are indoctrinated into
cultural and religious conceptualizations
according to two sides of the day,
mental constructions sacrificing harmony for
egoic suffering instead

our temples of conviction and
rock throwing scientific spires
can only hit or miss truth
in the unpredictable universe

the silent soul knows this somehow
but can't prove it because its
wisdom seeds are so spacious; woven way
into a ground-mat of unimportance
