Symmetry

Symmetry appeals to me –

The yin demands a yang.

Imagine Dracula if he

Had just one single fang.

 

A balance is required

For a bird or bee to fly

So Nature has conspired

To explain the reason why.

 

We have two eyes, two ears, two feet

And, naturally, two hands.

Symmetrically, we are complete

To follow life’s commands.

 

Rebellious types like things askew,

Eschewing any match,

But when I see their work on view,

I wish they’d start from scratch.
