Tumbling Into Existence

Here we go,
tumbling into existence.
Shaking and rolling,
crossing over the great divide of polarities.
Bruised knees,
Scarred elbows,
Our edges and corners knocked off,
Tilting this way,
and that way.

And so, we tumbled,
over and over.
Taken captive by a force...
Indescribable!
Loving it,
Hating it.
Oh! The craziness of it all!
Tumbling Into Existence.

The mandala above was completed on 19 Dec 2016 but I had difficulties relating to it then. And then on 8 Jan 2017, I finally understood it. It was an eureka moment, and the poem just wrote itself. Words came tumbling out just like that.
