Form and the formless
We are both
The formless exists as is
In front of us, it’s easy to miss
We live in a world of matter
There is more behind all its glitter
The formless is hard to catch
We are such a mismatch
Accustomed to touch and feel
Sight and sound, make it all too real
The mind that doesn’t have a form
We work hard to change and reform
An abstract friend, who never leaves
Its hand is in all that a human achieves
We cannot deny the formless
Through a form, its ideas express
We are a perfect blend of both
When together, there’s growth
The body is the pinnacle of form
With life, it’s welcoming and warm
Staying grounded, keeping it still
It’s easy to conform to the formless will
The body hosts the mind’s formless past
Such a seamless joint, it’s unsurpassed
There’s so much to investigate
Between the two, a fight we instigate
