A Little of This and A Little of That

Details: Friday, 22 May 2020; Written by Eve Moore

A Little of This and A Little of That

An obliging tree

fallen long ago.

A discarded board,

once a leafing, breathing tree,

placed blithely

upon it.

An object lesson

waiting to be

comprehended

along the

wooded

way

this

interplay

with that.

Contrasting one with the other,

these “sides" in no way

express opposition,

not seen in their

true light.

For what they draw

the lucid eye to is the

spectrum they hold

betwixt them—

the middle way

as fulcrum.

The sacred

betweenness

of their bond.

Again and again

what they seek

to make plain

is unity.

Fusion.

Force that knows

itself as one, indivisible,

as energy, which can

neither be created

nor destroyed.

For without one,

"the other" cannot

exist—not

entirely.

There is only inclusion in

the space between here

and there, a melding

fluence, wherein

influences meet,

conjoin one

another.

Reception

and transmission,

filling and emptying,

holding and

letting go.

It is symmetry.

It is coherence.

It is harmony.

It is love.

It is active,

even when

passive.

For even at

rest, it moves

mightily.

Breath in,

breath

out.

And when it stirs

waters, air, fires,

vacuums—

as the force

that is all,

when it comes

to life, it

dances.

Systolic and diastolic

beats keeping time

a fluid dynamic.

Day becoming night

as mother earth turns

in tune with her cosmic

nature, ever r/evolving,

ever cycling and re-

cycling.

It is alchemy.

Binding all

that stirs with

all that stirs.

Here is peace,

says the seesaw.

Here is dimension,

scope, participation

and vasting range—

above, below, left and

right, up and down,

pressing and

yielding.

Here is play.

Integration.

Male finding female,

north meeting south,

acid sustaining

alkaline,

negative charging,

electrifying positive.

And vice versa.

Ever vice versa.

Unity is the

interstitial weave

in the fabric of

existence.

We've mistaken

duality where all

there has ever been

is manifold collaboration,

amalgamation,

continuity.

Coalescence.

Comprehension

of this and that

is all consciousness

ever is, ever

will be.

See, says the saw,

in its demure, unobtrusive

way, balance isn’t

a solid state,

a stasis.

It is ever responding,

adjusting, accommodating

the pull with the push,

the rise with the fall,

ever gentling the

center point

round which

all takes form

and gives it

expression.

Endlessly

beautiful

expression.

See?

"Nature is ever at work building and pulling down, creating and destroying, keeping everything whirling and flowing, allowing no rest but in rhythmical motion, chasing everything in endless song out of one beautiful form into another.” —John Muir

Eve Moore: Once a professional writer of advertising, I saw the light & it has shown me words of a different nature. And so I take them down & offer them up. And all is well.

“When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace.”
—Jimi Hendrix
