paradox, at its source,
is a monopoly predicament
it’s refined mind trickery
contradictions are only reflecting mirrors
but we primarily see the topic for the tease
oxymorons are only presenting 
on the expression runway
filled with fashion-poses 
alluring to current mind styles
what we claim as puzzlement, 
as out there
is really only solutional-mind in restraints
if we could only kiss 
the ring of our brains 
as the rightful chosen leader 
of our beings
even our logic serves 
as court jesters to fancy
dualistic thinking always has vat-filled pratfalls 
pitting itself into dichotomy intrigue
as if you can’t have the one 
without the other
senses are addicted to contrast perceptual reporting
mind makes no sense 
out of the oneness of it all
or even the complexity of oneness, 
diversified
we can’t be part of the big picture
or how else would we come to observe it?
experience itself is a koan 
in the way we approach with it
imagine if we had the mind-fix 
to realize in the big picture, 
paradox is a mind stifle offered
a stampede of unanswerables from within
contradictions just hawk linear minds to death
for now, 
topic in the national news 
is for profit 
and not for answers
luckily we pray to the god of details 
to save us
linearity is a lozenge 
to either swallow whole 
or choke on
life sucks by every other means . . .
