Middle Way

John Prophet

Middle way.
Pendulum.
Swings,
one side
to the
next.
Then
back.
Momentum
gained,
only to
fade.
Back
forth.
Excesses
countered
by excesses.
The human
condition.
Battling.
Back and
forth.
Wild
behavioral
swings.
Excesses
nullified
by excesses.
The middle
way,
golden path.
Balance.
Greed and
fear,
nullified.
Balance,
harmony.
The middle
way!
