Center

(Darren's theme)
center beholds
center draws
center rejects

electrons loosing their grip and walking over
letting energy flow
so we can turn on the light

magnets rejecting each other
their 'backs' more attractive
a magnetic field showing us the way

molecules colliding
our galaxy in 4 billion years
causing extreme turmoil

a crisis
leading us out of our center
letting us create a new one

even when we sit still
our spine straight
we are still moving

how does a center serves us best
when it's calm and peaceful
just rippling
or when it's in turmoil
and overwhelming us

balance
flowing from one side to another and back
causing little changes

like a little stream, becoming a babbling brook
murmuring and whispering
giving us joy

until an overflow of water
is bringing danger and turmoil
small streams joining others
in an ever on flowing bigger river
gaining power with every stream joining

the buddhist are talking about cups of water
the filthy one, the one you can't look through
the one that has been hold into balance
with the filth sunken down to the bottom
leaving clear water behind

What benefits us best, turmoil or clarity
or are both inevitable
and training ourselves in using different centers
is it possible we can let turmoil exist
on a clear mind
