For Take My Phrase: Free verse of good versus evil |
| From a distance, there is only one line Stretching out across the eternal cosmos Yet as I approach, it separates slightly The truth is that two lines exist On the side of the first line is good White stretching as far as the eye can see Innocence and laughter float within Light almost glowing to the music of joy The side of the other line is evil Blackness forever entrapping the horizon Scorching heat from fire and sin Pain is the wildflowers that prick within There is a small area that lies between It has the soft coloring of gray The two sections delicately mixed together Swirled combinations of right and wrong It is here that I shall lie In the middle of time and eternity Not wanting to separate black from white Dwelling in-between the lines |
