wrong or right
good or bad
down or up
happy or sad
upside right
wrong side out
topsy turvy
smile or pout
why'm I asking
what's it about?
seeking answers
or confirming doubt?
maybe answers
aren't wrong nor right
perhaps the questions
aren't black or white?
lets flip queries
so answers come round
or we may find no
answers to be found
what say we mix
contrasts a bit
reframing them not
as polar opposite
the snarky zebra
in a poem by Shel
parsed the dilemma
I thought quite well
on color of stripe
was he white on black
or black against white
he retorted back
are you good with bad
or mostly the latter?
Happy with sad times
and does it matter
I'm a bit of both
in my wide open mind
and all of the above
plus some undefined
rage with spendour
sun alongside rain
round with sharp edges
going against the grain
angst and sangfroid
going slowly fast
arrive to depart
first things come last
then the puzzle of
lexicology
rewording rightly
to order priority
not right or wrong
but help or harm
within or withheld
left cold or kept warm
of conjunctions
carefully choose
and, but, or matter
which one you use
safe and secure
cherished and dear
mother and child
no room for "or" here
to bring it all round
let's end with fun
in silly contrasts
here's the first one
pond scum green, do not drink
child's tights in sky blue pink
plaid jumper with odd socks
day-glo night of diamond ink
so much for my write and wrong
here ends sermon and the song
I'd more to say but I forgot
next time won't you sing along
