Intrinsic vs. Extrinsic Senryu

Intrinsic vs. Extrinsic Senryu

A Poem by Steve L.
"

I vacillate between these often...

"

 

 

Meager speck of sand?

 

Center of the universe?

 

Which describes my life?

Wow !u got it right ,about oscillating in between . The balance,the equilibrium , these intriguing lines are something to think about for hours, an introspection stuff ... i enjoyed this.

My viewpoint can change on an hourly basis. Thank you!
The acceptance of how tiny we are comes through so clearly in these lines; but it is that innate ability to understand this, that makes us more than simply a speck of sand.

I like when you dig deep Steve.. I think we have all often wondered the same thing a time or two. I love the way you phrased this... well done my friend..

I really appreciate it, April. Thank you.
Interesting introspection here.....where do we stand in the universe? Everyone has asked that question at one time or another. Lydi*

Definitely...I guess it depend on your outlook...
Very interesting indeed. I like the font usage as well, highlighting the vacillation.
