Hexagram 22

fire on the mountain
mountain on fire
Hexagram twenty-two
on a high-wire

treading carefully
swinging to and fro
continuously challenging
until letting go...

gravity is gravity
always pulling down,
balancing above the ground
never to look down

step by step in motion
hoping not to fall
ready for catastrophe
ready for it all...

simplicity aligning
what is with what will be
accepting now what has become
accepting gravity

fire on the mountain
mountain on fire
trigrams interacting
grace on life's high-wire...
