Tip the balance

We are taught to strive for balance elusive

Leading a balanced life seems to be the right way to live..

Let me, for a moment, present the opposite point of view

Balance is beautiful, but imbalance is necessary to

Keep the universe in motion because a universe in balance perfect

Would be static, become stagnant, I suspect..

If we humans lived our lives in perfect synchrony

With our surroundings, we would languish in ennui

There would be no motivation, no need to strive

For change, for excellence in our lives..

Like everything else, moderation is the key

Tip the scales some, there should be some entropy!
