243. He is and he is not

```

He is confident,

But

He is not calm.

He is calm,

But

He is not confident.

He is pure,

But

He is not sure.

He is sure,

But

He is not pure.

He can be confident and calm,

He can be pure and sure,

The day

Surrender-might from the realm

Of the Beyond

Embraces his snow-white heart. ```
