Difficult and important: a tiny little pantoum

[flexagon]

It is difficult and important
to stand on one's hands,
to remember you have something to offer,
to remember that love is a verb.

To stand on one's hands,
to know that gravity is the best toy,
to remember that love is a verb,
that discipline is improvisation backwards.

To know that gravity is the best toy
turns the world into a playground; and
that discipline is improvisation, backwards
from what the adults ever told you.
