Balance

People talk about "balance"
Like the universe has to be
Equal parts good and evil
Like neutral is it's natural state
And all morally charged phenomenon
Must cancel each-other out 

They justify evil this way
But who knows whether
The universe might be 
Sick to its stomach
From all the sugar
Whether it might benefit 
From proper nutrition
Like the rest of us
