Balance is one of many spring equinox poems, a reflection on the scarcity of true balance in the world, people, and societies.
Balance – Spring Equinox Poems
She knows the scales
and weights and volumes
of lead and feathers
of blood and water
of bread and gravel.
Her sister taught her
how to blunt shadows
and taper the light.
Like the blue moon,
she owns a house
craving windows,
a door to the east,
a door to the west,
blowholes
conjuring flight,
sparse between
the tick and the tock
of the clock.
