Entwined - does it need help?

How do we know

when more is less

Less is more

How do we measure

Quality of quanity

Do we separate the two

Do we choose one, or the other

Do we balance it, or jungle it

dismiss it, accept it

For one it is everything

and to another it is nothing

For one it is backwards and meaningless

For another it is all encompassing,

It is, if nothing else, Perception

Update:

Thanks Bones it was a typo but either way it is a jungle out there lol !

Update 2:

Thanks all for your help, and nice comments.

Neonman thanks I like the help with the punctuation part!

Thanks Eyslund means alot to me!

    Questions are intriguing! Step out of the mainstream and look in, from the outside, and all poetry is before you!

    Outstanding!

    Good Morning!

    For one it is everything

    another… nothing.

    For one, backwards and meaningless,

    another, all encompassing.

    Yes and the reality is in itself a pointless exercise in perception for there are no absolute truths but only the micro manifestations of the collective conciousness guided by our self made prophecy ultimately resulting in our returning to the infinite set of buzzing atoms that do not care but act in a purely random, non determinable matter.

    nice words

  • Matters of perception always confound the question..somehow.

    I'm going to have to agree with neon--punctuate. Nice content though, I like what it says/ask.

    A bit like asking how big is the universe and being told "Depends..."

    Viewpoint is everything.
