Clear your mind

What is right?
What is wrong?
And what is left in the end?
Is it life, is it death, is it something in between?

Life is spin, there is no right or wrong,
But what is left of life when it’s all gone?
What’s left ain’t right, not by a long sight.

Left or right a polar split
A good left hook the boxers gift.
The centre is a void the earth it’s core
And life is a dance upon it’s shore.

The dance of life is in the music of our minds,
And those who feel it , know how it shines.
So clear your mind and listen to the dance
The moves you make are a fine game of chance.

So the left and the right are really an illusion
A poser’s position that has no conclusion.
The goal is the path, the fork in the road
Which has to be taken whatever the load.

So go left if it’s right, but most of us don’t
We go wrong in our bias for dumb is our code.

What we see in the world is polarisation
Dressed up as a gift called globalisation.
A mining firm has more power than a country,
And oil spills are a matter of money.

Clear your mind.
Let’s make these things simple.
What’s wrong with the world
Is all these dumb people.

They forgot the real centre
Is a place you can enter
As long as you leave your greed;
your placebo.

The void is the middle, a place to find
The mid-point you’ll see when you clear your mind
The fussing and fighting that drags us down
Is the blindness that stops us from being found.

Clear your mind,
And dance.

Dedicated to B.
