the electric wires
    bouncing in air topped with snow
            thoughts in a balance

Awake elements

Drouth wrapped in cyclical flow

When are Either-Or deductive conclusions
also Both-And inductive resolutions?

Only when you choose
to never Win alone.

Hemispheric balance
We sing the sum of its parts
mindfully engaged 
Left—concrete banalities 
Right—creative dimensions

The soft winds sing to my heart

I tread so lightly
upon taut thread of being
holding back restrained
fearing failure ever poised
lopsided by threat reward

balance

Surely, my son, you work to bless us

Off-the-cuff, like Dr. Watson, no ego, how so?

Needing no reason, you just enlighten.

vulnerably shy
consumed with doubt
her future in the balance

I feel like a
Confucian today,
wondering why
the names don't fit.
I need to bring back the
balance.
I am tired of taking 
the hits.

A Balance of Power

When a child was a child
A man was young and strong
As A child was growing well
A man was getting old
And losing living strength

Premium Member Abraxas

A term for balance,
arrows that face up and down; 
They say black magic;
Seeping out of murky depths,
sometimes you find abraxas.

Night

Vision diming. Losing balance. 
Lights flashing. Heartbeat steady. 
Empty seat. Feeling shaky. 
Blood like meat. 
Drunk like rage.

Balance

Needed in a world-
more than less and less than more,
always the same
too much is bad as too little
just the right amount to go on

Blase

Call an end to time
And spin the coin on the balance of a dime
Heads or tails
Define my bail
And blase a trail
To the center of the sun

Human Assessment

Thanking is a return of a receipt and saying sorry accounts for any expense.Receipts and expenses to balance,human quality is assessed.

Premium Member Cosmic Balance Tri Cube

May, let me 
grow with you;
Bring balance;

Cosmic light,
darkest wish;
Divine shine;

Raise me high
Flower moon,
bloom magic.

was the last thing i wanted.

and that's how it ended.

Straight forward you go.
Standing on the ledge's edge. 
With both feet grounded.
