Wavering

We fluctuate

Between

Comfort and complaint

Satisfaction

Evasive
Like our intimacy with the cosmos

It’s turbulent presence

Reassuringly protective

Appreciation

Requires more than

Casual peeking

We gravitate

Towards

Comfort and complacency

Dissatisfaction

Resented

Like our intimacy with the earth

Surviving on terms precarious

Appreciation

Requires more than

Casual breathing

We evaluate

Between

Vanity and victory

Discontent

Perfected

Like our easy communion with duality

Surfacing in cycles unpredictable

Appreciation

Requires more than

Casual being
