Light to dark
Dark to light
Black to white
White to black
Right to left
Left to right
Pull to push
Push to shove
Shove to push
Push to pull
Pull to shove
Shove to pull
Rise to fall
Fall to rise
Jump to fly
Fly to jump

All these things have in common
Common that is good and bad
not one but both
The order of things
It goes to one and then back to the other
Mixes then separates
Separates then mixes
Nothing changes yet it does
Nothing looks different
But it's not the same
Changes too small
Too small to changes
Too big to changes
Changes too big
Destroys to fix
Fix to destroys
Life to death
Death to life
Birth to die
Die to birth
Born to death
Death to born
New to old
Old to new
Order of this goes and comes
Changes to go back
Go back to change
Change every where
Every changes
Changes every thing
Living to nonliving
Nonliving to living
Bright to deem
Deem to bright
8 to 9
9 to 10
11 to 12
12 to 1
1 to 2
2 to 3
Time goes by
Night to day
Day to night
Every thing goes
Then goes backs in a different way
