the world walks on a tightrope
deriving strength from its opposites.
from every minus spins a plus,
every negative, a positive
and every man, a women
and between them the power
that sustains the world.
ying gives rise to yang
and darkness gives that
extra edge to the beauty of light.
in the positive and negative sparks
of the split atoms nagasaki and hiroshima turned to ash.
the union of men and women sustains civilisations throughout the ages.
god and satan gave birth to religion
that help build up the characters in men
who skilfully walk between opposites
to maintain his impartiality.
