No Two Ways

There were to be no Two ways about it
Sink or swim,
Up or Down ,
Top or bottom,

High or Low ,
Ruler or Prisoner
No In Between
There simply wasn't to be
anything in the middle
See, there was this Greatness factor
and how to Deal with It,
Make It work
or not
Once you've
been transformed,
The Middle ground will not do,
although the Practice in Humility,
Is Strengthening,
It is Humiliating ,
In the Highest Degree,
And brings you to a place of Longing
Which is guaranteed
to Break your Heart
And Deny yourself
and Others
the Joy
of your Song
