This day exactly this day
and without effort, yet
I wrestle with who
and what
and why.

Round and round, empty and full.

So simple a truth
still unfathomed, for
there is nothing, nothing
that I ought to be.

We all wrestle with that problem till we realize our true nature.

You have summed up my own beliefs perfectly in the last verse. I already am; why would I want more or less?

Excellent, and thought-provoking as usual David.

Thank you, Janice. This is yet more of my continuing therapy-through-verse... ;)
