Equilibrium

Sanity, like space,
and everything else, is a sphere.

So,
the farther we run from sanity,
the closer we come to it again.

It’s the balance that keeps us distant.
We find the missing zero
when we gain our balance—
sanity is the equilibrium
between sanity and insanity.

Stretching across the globe.
whether we go farther or closer,
either way
we absolve the proportion
of the far and the near.
