Funny how the pendulum moves, Set swaying by a finger, Swinging  back and forth As gravity wages war against momentum, In a war it always wins, In relationships too the pendulum rocks Back and forth But not for the wronged For they push it to where They want it Because history and the present Are writ not by the victor But the wronged against, And in that the pendulum hangs At 45 degrees

Pendulum
Funny how the pendulum moves, Set swaying by a finger, Swinging  back and forth As gravity wages war against momentum, In a war it always wins, In relationships too the pendulum rocks Back and forth But not for the wronged For they push it to where They want it Because history and the present Are writ not by the victor But the wronged against, And in that the pendulum hangs At 45 degrees
We all have those arguments right, or maybe it's just me
