Reverse Polarity

REVERSE POLARITY

If I’m negative, you are positive
We’re like both magnetic poles
I am North and you are South
Top and lower lips on a mouth
As opposite yet attracted souls
Both good, and always sensitive

Plus to minus the current flows
But electrons go the other way
Like us, there’s little logic left
But without each other, bereft
And no laws of physics to obey
Just biology, as everyone knows

It is a case of reversed polarity
One to the other and back again
Both needed to make a circuit
Like dough, both must work it
It seems too complex to explain
In a continued search for clarity
