Downside up

Downside up:
New order of the day,
And of the life
That slays the upside
Down; down
Where we are frozen and 
Dismayed.

Down, where we've forgotten
To obey 
The anti-rules of day-to-day
Existence.

If we could seize 
What we should
In this up-ended, down-righted
Way,
We could allay
All of the fears, persistent.

That which so
Unlawfully does claim to bar us
Every day
From self-forgiveness
Is, in fact, the scandaled way
We all
Should be.
