We all have a dark side; a clever part of us that has the potential
to slip out and spread itself across the path of our lives, staining the way.
It is a determined, persuasive component of our being;
whispering sickly sweet nothings at us so it can come out to play.
Persistence is its power;
the only thing that can thwart it is truth.

Our world sometimes comes to us painted in choices of black or white –
a polarizing view to be sure because that means
someone must be right and someone must be wrong.
But somewhere inside of us we realize the truth:
much of our world is actually a promising grey.

The search for truth is often convoluted. This root has come above ground
in a quest for moisture. It does an incremental writhe in its hunt;
circling, branching out and then returning back under the ground.
Relentless until death, the seemingly illogical tendril creates
aesthetic wonder in its simple but vital task.
