Breathes cogent relief...

Even brightest of lights hold coldest
Of shadows in their warm embrace....

Beneath Yin yang clouds 
it’s all in how you see it,
what’s Sun or the rain....

If I had to make a choice I would rather hate intelligently than to love stupidly....

The black stands for the bad
Together they are one....

Emotions ain't subtle stronger parts,
Concept of yin-yang deeper
Dark whispers kill em.

So humble yet so
Absolutely immoral 
Spiral fine Yin Yang.

Memories on a
Yin yang pendulum

Dismantled, assembled
Life's joys.... sorrows-
As if heart and brain play chess...

There’s no shadow without a light
No shallow without a height
No love without a fight
No wrong without a right
No Yin Yang without black and white
In the essence of soft shadows in hindsight...

Walking around,
looking down and see a pool of Light.
Getting a closer look,
and notice a little piece of Darkness.
Turn around,
and see a pool of Darkness.
Getting a closer look,
and notice a piece of Light.
Stuck in the middle,
nowhere to run....

  Where my yin meets my yang
    I hear a dissonant clang

  My physician traced it back 
    all the way to the ‘Big Bang’

  Seems I hopped aboard an asteroid
    went for a wild ride

  Hit my head on a comet
    blasphemed, ‘God damn it!’

More than a little bit transient 
except when I look in your eyes; 
My soul frozen by your cement
grounded by faith my spirit flies; 
Balance is what you emphasize 
without a ‘you’ there is no ‘me’;
Our lows are the flip side of highs, 
the yin yang of apostrophe....

Pete

The family dog is a yin yang
Two faced in black and white

Lives his life on a log chain
Likes to play with his bite

Pearly, ivory, toothy fangs
Partial faced in the moonlight

His Pyrenean bark is like a big bang
His bark is worse than his bite

Diametric …
art and commerce
Twining symbols
colors adverse
 Yin & Yang
divergent segues 
Each stigmatic
 bloddy payday
Fraternal image
Louvre / Montmartre
Black tie bidding
cobbled heart
A poor man sings
a rich man vies 
On bartered canvas
 —truth defies

SUN/MOON 

Enraged flaming sun,
engulfing all he can see,
throughout our toil.

Passive the moon glows,
chilling all she can caress,
so softly we sleep.

Sun and Moon live on,
destined by the hand of time,
Yin-yang forever.

Dearest angel of the winds
Better part of the yin yang twins
Light of another day
I wish you wouldn't wonder away
Soul of the sea
Forever blissful in sanity
With me for now
In heaven forever
Loving heart pounds in thy chest
Cheating nature's test
Forever beautiful
Eternally young
Your love is forever
Mine has only just begun...

Chinese myth is about Pan Gu
First god who kept Yin-Yang true
Earth was made of Pa Gu’s prone corpse
His eyes became the sun and moon of course

His blood formed the rivers, all thousand and three
Sparse hair grew into China’s plants and trees
This god as much a legend as Greeks and Romans claim
Chinese god, Pan Gu is his mighty name...

Only in darkness
I see light
I see stars 
Twinkling in the sky
I see
The moon
Gracing the firmament

In sickness
I see health

In hunger
I see food

When downtrodden
I see joy

When alone
I seek companion

When hated
I seek love

Yin and Yang
That’s the way life is.

Thank, God
Humanity is moving
More toward Yang
The Light...

Listen to poem:

How often a story ends, amen 
but embers get revived.
Just when attention shifts
and talk wanes and subsides
Up pops a little 'and then'
An off we go again.

How often 'then' marks a turnabout
A sneaky unexpected kiss
A spiel for some new deal
A U-turn or swing around
So beware and prepare
For yin yang, flips and flops
Now and then, again....

Holy Trinity! 

There is no complete
Dark or light, we have twilight
Holy Trinity!

Crucified Jesus
In the middle of two thieves
Holy Trinity!

Yin - Yang Complement 
each other, moving as one 
Holy Trinity! 

There is Heaven - hell
We live in the perfect mist
Holy Trinity! 

Not Two, there is Three 
Balancing polarities
Holy Trinity!...

I
digits through nine
faith came easy
enter zero - infinity

II
God had to go
God would fill all space
creation is born

III
space is his disguise
like zero, it's No-thing:
No thing, not nothing!

IV
Euclid gave us wins, loss -
Curves have no points
Logic boxes us all

V
Oceanic thinking, now
More needed than ever
yin-yang, not in and out...

the silence that listens -
the stillness that anticipates

what is one
becomes the other

   Earth spins
from yin to yang
- dark to light
- death to growth

what is one
becomes the other

infinite duality
less than grains of sand
in a mirror that reflects nothing
but a fleeting conscience 
- seeds from death
that grow in the light

  black is white and......

The world is a dichotomy,
The Yin Yang of life’s experience,
It is simultaneously banal,
And mysterious,
Happy and sad,
Exciting and bland,
Without small,
There would be no tall,
If there is no up,
There can be no down,
With no us,
There is no them
If you can’t be right
You will never be wrong,
So, stop being obsessed singing the notes,
While forgetting to sing the song....

Morning delight
Fiery sunburst;
Elegant conversation



This paradox
Black upon white;
Yin-Yang contrast



Busy street corner
Each person alone;
Crowded solitude



Mall spectators
Browsing and looking;
Yet not seeing



I style a smile
To greet a stranger;
Sparkling sunburst



Valentine shoppers
Seeking to buy;
Love now barters
