MAGNETISM
There once dwelled
a lodestone
repulsed by nought
who nay spareth
laws of attraction
being so
our lodestone allured
receptive sorts
who likewise fancy
any novel idea
being such
all-inclusive receptacles
spurning nought
tradition-neutral
all knowledge reviewed
as so
our lodestones sidestepped
their own kind
mindful to divert
inverse poles
as such
our lodestones desired
strict cohesion with
novel principles mandating
polar experimentation
just so
congruity beyond them
natural law circumvented
disorientation via doubt
polar elusion
just as
laws of attraction
compel magnetic order
propelling analogous poles
thither and yon
in effect
for harmony’s sake
to reclaim balance
obliged to observe
physical laws.
