The Mirror has been shattered,

A transformation has begun.

Conflicting emotions spiral in unison,

A struggle ensues

As the stone pulses and grows,

Releasing its power in an illuminating shower of twinkling light.

The Seeker knows;

Where did it go?

Clutching to an empty satchel,

Recognizing the duplicity

Of the vagabond at the forest edge.

Only disappointment and self-loathing instead

At the failure to see

The extent of one’s own trickery.

But transformation is possible,

The change has already begun.

When two sides must face and see

The undeniable reality

That they have always coexisted

Inside of The One.
