Listen to poem:
Neither here nor there I be
uncomfortably stuck in quandary's
minefield of no man's land.
There is so much pressure on you
when you lie betwixt and between.
Pressure to go forward or back,
go one way or other at the fork in the road
especially today when binary holds the sway.
Now there are only two states,
or position you can be in,
1 or 0, tick or tock, clip or clop
flip or flop, on or off, in or out
up or down, for or against,
If you're nor for us, your against us.
Your back is against the wall to comply or not.
Fence sitters are banned and must topple off the wall.
Is it any wonder we're all seen as biased?
Yea of Neigh, 1 or 0, for or against what's your call?
For betwixt and between,
there's nothing but vacuum.
