I am that form of a seer

in the midst of migraines I have
often experienced states of 
euphoria
in my worst pain I have
experienced profound joy

in such a paradox one day I
thought
"I know nothing,
I don't get it, 
I know absolutely nothing"

And then I heard a chorus of voices
sounding not unkind and rather joyous
saying
"now she sees"

We live in a world of pain and of joy
I am amazed by the transcendence of the human 
spirit and dismayed by the 
violence of our evolution.
We seem to live in a world of 
both heaven and hell.
Yin and Yang
motion and stillness
opposites that are a part of each 
other

I don't get it

I no longer expect to

but it is fun to try

I am that form of a seer
