simplicity
chaos
elegance
disarray
opulence
austerity
the simple chaos of life's burgeoning
birth is violent
life springs forth from disarray
and order begins to take shape
as arrays of elegance
darkness must share its light
and light likewise, its darkness
the elegant simplicity leads to peace
peace to joy in abundance
indeed, opulence
and the opulence draws the light
the opulence drains the elegance
the opulence steals the simplicity
and chaos befriends the austere
and the circle is born
and the circle is slaughtered
and the circle is formed
and the circle is destroyed
opulence
austerity
disarray
chaos
simplicity
elegance
the elegance for the simple truths
the simple truth of creation
the elegant truth of destruction
the wondrous austerity of love
