Sonnet in Shakespearean Rhyme

Conflicting beliefs internal strife,
Spinning ‘round contemplative of the sides,
Ying and yang they oppose the other’s life,
Yet my mind wishes in both to abide,
Constant inward battle I must forgo,
Toil amongst toils I find betwixt every split hair,
Dancing in self-made chaos to and fro,
I seek an inner peace both mild and fair,
Yet from these seizures my passions do drive,
Moving forth theses to anti-theses,
Seeking form within dialectic’s live,
Doing ‘way with all mental prostheses,
Well-formed biases drive my soul to find,
Truth beyond the divergence of the mind.
