Virtual Muse #1: Balance Accepted

 

 

 


 

 

balance- falling up
harmony- us falling into each other
gray- that area between falling and fallen
stitch- what you get after you fall on a jagged rock
idyllic- conversing on falling
ethereal- falling minds
unmask- falling preconceptions
innovate- new ways to fall
supple- falling in love
evanescent- falling into nothingness

 

 

 

How do I find my balance, you ask?
You cannot ask! That would introduce imbalance
and I would tumble and collapse
like a house of cards!

 

Now, as you know, cards cannot pick themselves up,
so a balanced world would contain those
who pick each other up,
which can pick up the cards
and stack them again into a house.

 

Without a balanced world,
one cannot find one’s balance easily,
and I find I am in such a world.
So how do I find my balance?
Easy. By letting go.
