Be

The PULL of simplicity

is a gentle tuG

or a modest tendency.


It never gets in the way of complication's wild array

or AGENCY.


The air of SILENCE

rings PURITY or signals

U N I T Y

or otherwise

underperforms

mindless cacophony.


The BEAT of SUFFICIENY

is a steady humming

UnConfused with the DRuMMinG

of the urges and purges and regurges of Consumption.


There is enough. It is enough. It is.

I like your poem very, very much. It resonates with a quiet sense of strength and dignity ... such a great message within your words!

Thanks - I spent a lot of time writing poetry last year, that I am just now getting around to sharing.

For me, I need to find a place and time that feels right to share these words and thoughts. It's still too early for some, but hopefully I will be adding more and writing more on the side!
