Dionysus and Apollo: Wielding the Duality
Rationale hard to maintain in the wake of the compelling
Understanding both sides is a task, overwhelming.
Can you only acknowledge what we know?
Or will you expand it outside the seed we sow?
Surf the apartheid, it sees the way to go.
Apart from the tide, what seems to show?
Black and white cannot be right
Shades of gray brighten the light
Wielding both aid your plight
And able you for flight.
You must die and be reborn by the grape vine
Clean yourself out by way of the wine
The sun keeps you aware of the ground and in touch.
A prehending quality that is needed much.
For where will we go if the path is unclear?
But how can we progress if our bar is set near?
Order the balance, balance the disorder.
Order the balance, balance the disorder.
