Transcending Dialectics


Go, seekers!
 
                 Leave those old extremes!
 
         Surpass that frontier
                       of what seems.

   Exhaust perception, what was sought.

       From nuanced truths
              gain sharper thought
          than anything
 sensed yesterday.

Embrace the gray
 
    the middle way.

         With temperance
                 and empathy
            receive
         your new reality.
