emotional
does not imply
irrational
two wings a bird
two legs two eyes
balance poised
it stands it flies
the Feelings &
the Thoughts
are friends
divided yes
as two bookends
yet if not matched
in strength and size
the functions may
be compromised
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
you made
your intellect
an eagle
while
your feelings
incubated as
a reptile egg
without the feelings
eagle weakens
sight dim
it flies into
the ledge
