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

About the Creator

Thor Grey (G. Steven Moore)

Since 1991, this compassionate writer has grown through much adversity in life. One day it will culminate on his final day on Earth, but until then, we learn something new every day and we all have something to offer to others as well.
