Laws With Gravity
Moving beyond,
What goes up and then down,
Where opposites attract,
Only to repel with a frown.
The statistical mind may
See a regression to the mean.
Like a giant roller coaster,
Though silent and unseen.
We often view diplomacy,
With two minds far apart.
As compromise drives a wedge,
Between both from the start.
When conflict seeks total victory,
Where only one can stand tall.
The struggle fails to weaken, but
Only strengthens those who fall.
This universal ' tug of war ',
Tirelessly moves to expand & contract.
While the gravity is often hidden,
Keeping its shadow intact.
