You are      standing                       
on your      head
  but think      you are
      resting on      the bottom
                                   of the world.

    Perspective      my friend
          you must     understand
            is key     to insight
                 not a     rabbit-hole
                                         to perpetually fall into.

Flip your     view
               up-down     and sideways
     then find     balance
            on your own     two feet again
                                                   quit standing on your head.

         Unless you      have been
                 buried alive      cement will not
           be atop      of you
   stand up      tall
                                                                ­   with the endless sky above.
