The Thought Process

The marbles, dispersed, and unconstrained float carelessly,
 Magnetise, 
Mobilise, 
Into perfect linearity.   

As the magnetic force begins to falter, the marbles begin to fray, 
I find myself between realities,  
Of which neither I can appease, 
The delineation between chaos and order grow evermore astray.   

There are no gaps here in linearity,  
None through which for me to fall,  
Not a gap in between which I can crawl. 
Though in the safety of constraint I am, in fact, unfree.    

The marbles, in linearity, and constrained, they are perfunctory, 
De-magnetise, 
De-mobilise 
Imperfectly, into uncertain foray and insensible folly.
