Divided soul man has always been,
holy and perverted,
Yin and Yang,
a product of the two as one:
male and female,
in love or lust created,
spirit and flesh,
of mind and body,
north and south,
head in the clouds,
feet on the ground,
builder and destroyer,
generous and greedy,
abundant and needy,
pastoral and seedy,
from womb to tomb,
as Jehovah says,
I'ld rather you be hot or cold,
for lukewarm I spit from my mouth!

Interesting, life is created of polar opposites, yet the more opposites you have, the more in the middle the sum will be. Cant please everyone
