There is nothing
Outside of Ekhad.
Duality cannot
Exist.
We need both light
And darkness
In order to grow.
What good
Is the sunshine
Without the soil
Needing its warmth?
Darkness celebrates
Our path
By surrounding
The light;
Its beams stressed
With intention.
Haman and Mordechai
Become more easy
To confuse
The more we dance
With Esther
Upon her
Mystical chariot
As she pulls down
Unity from
The other side
Of Keter.
We are mandated
To heal,
To shatter
The shell of shadow
In order to
Redeem the light.
What other way
Is there to do that
Than to approach,
To come near,
To engage with,
But not act upon,
What should never
Have been named
“Evil”?
Blessed are you,
My own
Yetzer Hara,
For being
My intimate
And committed
Friend,
For showing me
My life’s work,
My life’s
Holy
Healing.
