LEFT, THE RIGHT WAY? |

LEFT, THE RIGHT WAY? The Left has gone so far that way That it has met up with the Right That went so far the other way That the Left came into sight. They both run around in circles And they only know rejection Of the way all the others go But crossing at the intersection. If you look for a difference You will find it hard to see For the one is like the other Depending how they want to be. No matter how wrong they are You know they will not admit it And even if caught in a lie They will twist the truth to fit it. It’s tunnel vision at it’s worst With no light there at the end Because it runs into itself Around every single bend. With all of them lost in the dark Who will refuse to see the light If you go enough toward the Left You’ll meet those coming from the Right. 04-02-2005 Del "Abe" Jones Mankind's greatest accomplishment is not the revolution of technology, it is the evolution of creativity. |

The funny thing is, that as they pass, they do pass within the middle ground. Everyone meets somewhere along the circle, and the overlapping is to be expected, and I think, welcomed. The longer I live, the more I believe that Life's choices are never black and white. And I believe the 'middle ground' beings make just as many mistakes in judgement as the extremes. They just aren't always as obvious, and are never as colorful or newsworthy. |
