Up is on.
Down is off.
Switches and
light bulbs convince.
Feeling up?
You’re on.
Feeling down?
You’re off.
(we rue the difference)
Up is light.
Down is dark.
(anything else means
you’ve lost your spark)
This may be true in
electricity’s world,
but when it comes
to you and me and
the universe’s swirl -
passion and purpose flow and ebb;
light and insight dawn and set.
And when we embrace this
truth
we find delight in every
step.
