What is this tide they speak of? What consists of the tide? Who is the all knowing entity deciding where it shall turn and break? How exactly does one follow it and go against it? Which truly is the lesser evil between the two? Every mundane urge forcing you to be either or Society splitting you in half Bleeding and confused merely trying to decide which direction to go Why do you have to choose just to go this way or that? For both you will be frowned upon The tide controls anyone who lets it This vast deep blue breathing creature wrapping its swelling tendrils around anyone close enough You don't give it the chance to ensnare you You are you and who you are is the type of person who plants your feet firmly where you stand and wiggles your toes in the sand.

Everyone is their own tide
