Balance & Ballast
What is the diff
O top-heavy biped,
between the inbetween and
gravities tipping point?
There you are, strung out vertically with small regard
for the sacredness of centricity - nuclei, the hearth and heart:
that most things swing round a core
whether an atom, community, idea,
electromagnetic field, circulating blood or breath,
circadian rhythms, lunar or seasonal cycles.
The Hara resolving the dynamic
equably like a vertical spirit level.
All bodily systems themselves loop round a spun-out ellipse
within its harmonic geometric.grids,
aided and abetted by muscle, sinew and intention - every cell complicit.
The Buddhic Middle Way,
not just a complacent compromise
but the actual crux of all opposites:
the Meeting round table of peace;
a cosmic Egg,
wherefrom all else springs.
