The Ripples from the Golden Lake

Only when you're alone
     Are you together
And only when you're together
     Can you be alone.

This paradox is not unique to you.

Each individual cell contains
     The whole universe
No less than the universe contains
     Each individual cell.

Every polarity is only this:

The perspective of
     The only one
Against its other left behind
     Within the unity.

One can never be free

From what you are
     And what you're not.
All that you touch and reveal
     Is counteracted completely

By the very thing that values your singularity.

Does this help you see 
     Resistance as your authority,
The unresolved wrong as what completes
     Your right,

Unrequited desire the thing that satisfies?
