He's a cynic,
she's a motley fool
they go through time;
witty, in opposite directions

Together they make up
the string of Time:
everlasting, effervescing,
shimmering a long a line.

In contrast they balance
In not like features they oppose
Uneducated or wise,
each to the same degree.

They balance like 6 and 9,
fitting like
two paisleys
in the same sphere

Likewise they despise and love:
in the same degree, at the same time
Everlasting, effervescing,
shimmering a long a line.
