Checking One Two

driven by an instant
caught in the moment
balance on top of morals
to be content with them
duality check in order
coughing soft but choking harder
on a piece of yourself - haunting
the one concept that's truly daunting

all eyes on the ones who get it
checking, blanking, remaining delicate
for the one who will come after
who is better than the last
think fast or get left behind
remove the burden now not later
until at last one makes the find
the very truth that blows your mind
