Yin & Yang

by Jennifer-Crystal Johnson

We’re a myriad of thoughts
In a kaleidoscope of dreams
And everything seems real
But nothing’s what it seems

The evil that we do
Is for the good of all we know
And when there’s no evil left
Then there’s nowhere left to go

(Napkin Poetry, Broken Publications, 2010)
