Impact – Harmony
In the world we have two natures –
the voice that says “mine”
and the voice that does not speak because presence is unified
so that there is no one
to speak with.
‘mine’ carries a hammer
building bridges, wonders, and junk –
striking against the nail,
moving the object to its will.
The voice that does not speak,
in a paradox of voice…
Sings.
humming and buzzing in Tune
Producing a Harmony not often Heard
Within Identity;
Stroking piano keys inside a symphony.
The hammer seeks to mould;
the piano seeks to meld.
The impact of nails leaves scars in the wood.
The piano produces, is heard or ignored, and fades –
Enhancing the player through Practice.
Perhaps our builder screws into the wood
and realizes he has made a mistake…
he releases his binding
and has left:
a Screwed Board
-- too flawed for the next attempt.
Our musician plays his keys
and perhaps misses a note, but
his impact lacks destructive force.
He is now more practiced,
better equipped to once again try for Harmony
more able to contribute his Art.
so in Life I Choose –
I am not a builder hammering
out my vision
I am not a screwed board.
Rather I am
I am learning to play my notes,
Practicing my harmony production,
Gaining experience from the missed notes
Adding to the collective
Creative
And Malleable
Symphony of Life.
