A BACKSTAGE TASK
Between fast and slow
less and more
seated firmly is the one
who runs the show.
Between doubt and belief
fear and faith
the One remains
whom thoughts cannot sieve.
Between discipline and impulse
holding back and release
is a sacred God
to atone the sensual beast.
Between the audience and the act
the fiction and the fact
is a backstage task
where the hero stands unmasked.
~ 'Shiva poetry' by Shail Gulhati
