Scaled Back
September 6th, 2020
Get on the scale
Not so simple
Take a look around
Get up off the ground
Take heed as you
Take lead of you
Back and forth
Up and down
Either way
A smile, a frown
Morality is so, that
Yet ethics is so, that
Which way is leaned
Thoughts are gleaned
Black and white
Is not, you see,
Wrong or right,
Grayscale, spectrum
End to end
Back to back
Full turn
To the front
Judgements,
Scale them back
Place the world
Upon the scale
A grayscale of
Thoughts inside,
Create the bubble,
Burst it
