Topsy Turvy
Loot
2019
Forward we step
Blight becomes might
Plight delivers insight
Light not night
Forward we step
Unknowns we trust
Address we must
Success for us
Us for success?
Must we address?
Trust we unknowns?
Step we forward?
Night not light?
Insight delivers plight?
Might becomes blight?
Step we forward?
Makes me think that ...
The topsy-turvy world of work can be a place where you sometimes don't know whether you're coming or going. Anchors and reference points can move so much you can't if your up or down. If you're going forward for backwards.
