sunny side up

to live
we must be able to look at ourselves
from each & every side

therefore, we must
unveil ourselves inside out
& fold ourselves outside in

we must look at our office desktop
turn the up side down
& flip the down side up

we must
put our back side to the front
& hide the front side to the back

we must always
input & output side by side

to prevent us from
downfall & backslide

good thing we must hide
bad thing put aside

by all means & all considerations
jokes aside
otherwise we will lose sight
won't be able to sleep at night

these are moments that I cherished
captured through my eyesight
these are my foresight
whether they are wrong or right

it's to give you some insight
on how I look at each & every side

whether you are on or off my side
I am not partial & do not take side
hope that you will keep my thoughts
during daylight & by your bedside!
