perspective

There is always more than one view of our circumstance;


Up close it's always intimidating and breeds momentary insecurity,
mental anguish and reaction.


When viewed from an angle,
the possibility of escape and hope of plausible detour lingers - a moment of decision.


From above, the view is surprising in light of its smallness,
as it is swallowed up in the mix of all things good and evil.


When finally viewed behind us, reality overcomes chaos,
 and wisdom takes a bow.
