The sway of come what may
That swings the sense of everything
To convey the fundamental verticality
And undermine reality, diffuse,
Confuse, abuse, misuse, betray
Dismay all consistence of totality.
 
The novel insight disrupts, interrupts
The preconceived rigidities
A loss of central quiddities
Into descent of all intent
Blunders into stupidities
Wherein distraught correction
Merely corrupts.
 
So, must one retrain to gain
The basic balance of the brain
Regain the up the down, the sane,
Look carefully again, again
Discover what a larger world may contain.
