Disequilibrium

Disequilibrium

There is no such thing as
Equal
It’s a truly mismatched
World
With no approximations
And

Hi Neville!  Love this!  What store we put into things like perfect and equal and beautiful and happy ever after and... Oh the list goes on. Life has a knack of kicking really hard when you least expect it. We seem to think it is okay to live up to everyone else's expectations. It is what's expected. Great poem x
