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.
