Symmetry

Symmetry appeals to me – The yin demands a yang. Imagine Dracula if he Had just one single fang. A balance is required For a bird or bee to fly So Nature has conspired To explain the reason why. We have two eyes, two ears, two feet And, naturally, two hands. Symmetrically, we are complete To follow life’s commands. Rebellious types like things askew, Eschewing any match, But when I see their work on view, I wish they’d start from scratch.

You and I have so much in common this poem shocked me; I want everything to be off kilter, lopsided, and uneven.

Enjoyed! I must admit when I first click on a poet's work, I check out the symmetry first! My enduring problem is checking out a woman's cleavage before I look into her eyes . . . . .(The Captcha code is, "CHA" as in, "cha cha cha" or got CHA?)
