All is not Black
All is not White
All is White and Black
and the colors burst forth
from that same place
that we both race
It is not north nor east
nor is it south or west.
Your seeking implies a missing
it strengthens your yearning
fueling your desparation
and intensifies your need
for liberation.
From a past deed?
only the ONE knows
It is here one grows.
Or at the very least
an opportunity to be
released from the beast
Your surrounded by chaos, I see
It is only here inside of chaos
that peace can be for us.
From nothing grows something
When erased we can fill up the space
Because when we are at peace
what does it serve to seek
from this, the abyss a release
Just take a peek,
it is available to you
Your friends try and reach you
please open your heart to them
and let them care and guide
what your feelings seem to hide
be not so sad and grim.
We love you...more than you know
We feel the hurt that you feel
as long as the pain is the meal
that is feasting upon you
rather then you, grasping, tasting
the bitter and the sweet
We send you much loving, caring
and the smile or the treat,
is your accepting what we are giving.
Your grief and your sharing
Is providing what is so rare
And that is a chance for others to care
For ALL of those that are out here
By Gary H...June 13/1997
