Of Rigidity
Of Rigidity
We all have two principles
To follow in life
One is duality
The second is being double.
In order to save a situation
All human beings,
Politicians and soldiers included,
Have to adapt such a stance
In order to exist
Except save in one situation
A Marshal of the Field had to say this
‘’The only times ones rigidity plays
And pays
Is when you both are about to sleep
That’s it take it or leave it.''

A wonderful conceit
(that;s a technical word referring to poetry, not meaning vanity)
As they say, there are only two types of people in the world, those who think there are only two types of people in the world and those who know better.
This poem trnascends that. Although I think many of us have many more than two!

More than two
Would perhaps mystify
the hidden meaning
Contained in the thought towards the finale ,
perhaps.
