Most people think conviction
And integrity are linked
But conviction is a judgment
Judgments lure us to the brink
( … the shadow self, the unconscious
Becomes active by intent
As we seek beyond our limits
Energized by extent … ) (*1)
Integrity, a state of being
As such left unimpaired
So a robber, unrepentant
Is consistent, as is, with theirs
We view the common concept
As if morality is sound
But, it’s meaning is much broader
Yet most are concept bound
If the mind is open
No conflict will be felt
But conflict bound conception
May be the current hand that’s dealt
