Symmetrically Bound

























There is so little to distinguish
the living from the dead when
both are symmetrically bound.
Life and death are optimistic
concepts of a nothingness,
extremities of the same view.
It is said one cannot meaningfully
be one without the other,
tho’ they mutually exclude.

Today I am neither;
I am convinced
by an unshakeable
sense of contentment.
