The lack of colour, the absence of light
Devoid of pigment, returns to black
Absorbs all that approaches and soaks up warmth
Feeds on energy of others and gives little back
It doesn't mix well, too strong for most
Polluting the brightest that get in its way
Only pure white stands a chance
To balances the scales and to turn it to grey

A corridor. Of all locked doors. Each one stays closed. Through need not choice. If one were opened. They all would cease. So in between. Is where I'll be. A passageway. Of many rooms.
Hole. Deep. Wide. Chasm of dark.
If pigs could fly. I’ll meet you at the restaurant at the end of the universe. We’ll talk about the world and things that may not matter. If pigs could fly.
A child was once concieved,. It started off extremely small. The child was full of hope and faith. And the power to conquer all. The child was simple to the eye,. But beautiful all the same.
Count to ten,. breathe in then out. Start again,. resist urge to shout. Be at peace,. find an inner calm. Stresses decrease,. goodbye wolf hello lamb. #augustwriteaday.

#augustwriteaday. All thru my life. Never really been good. Not necessarily bad. Just not done as I should. A little bit saucy. A little bit flirty. Sometimes quite blue. Oh yes a bit dirty.

@Weirdwolf thank you.. I love the whole scales of good/evil black/white metaphor and the logic behind it.. I'm not that into fantasy but Dragonlance Chronicles are ficking brilliant at conveying it and everything in between in a pulp story 👍
@Weirdwolf exactly 👍 two sides of one coin and one cannot exist without the other.. I love that thought
@Burrfoot exactly, polar opposites of the same piece. Like day and night, good and evil, love and hate, pain and pleasure.
@Weirdwolf over whatever period of time we may pick to measure, one will out balance the other.. But then the scales will redress.. The other part of this that I find fascinating is that evil will always implode and destroy itself
@Weirdwolf and good will be corrupted and think it is soo pure it can do no wrong.. So therefore anything it does is good..
@Burrfoot in the respect of emotions, good and evil, right and wrong. Are these 'concepts' of human creation? I often wonder about labels, can they change and adapt to a broader understanding or are they cemented as fact?
@Weirdwolf ahh I think it's our labels for concepts.. But with good reason as intelligent life.. An animal may carry out acts that if a human did it would be called 'evil'. The animal cannot be rational but we can. Good/Evil is a label for concepts that are as tangible as up/down
@Burrfoot i suppose on way of visualising it is with a wheel. The central pin being chaos, the spokes representing the path of opposites, the northern most point being up, let's say, the southernmost being down, easer and west, left and right, and these spokes go in every direction and every representation, dark, light, right, wrong. I everything has its equal and exact opposite, but is essentially the same spoke, just different end if the perspective.
