in no uncertain terms
all things must be in
their proper
proportion
it is a series of decisions
that move us inexorably
forward or downward,
what things we accept or
declare,
the embrace or abdication
of choice
elements, the bones
of relationships easily
snapped
under the weight
placed too much on one side
or the other
we take our measure
by inches, or ounces, or
breaths.
phonemes, morphemes,
the slightest gesture
too easily slips past the
gaze.
all things require
this
much care.
