-- Any More, Any Less --

by John Herlihy

 

Any more of what?

Any less of what?

Any more remembered

Any less forgotten

Any more gain

Any less pain

Any more hope

Any less despair

Any more loved

Any less hated

Any more happiness

Any less sadness

Any more sound

Any less silence

Any more light

Any less darkness

Any more peace

Any less conflict

No more of less

No less of more

It’s balance we seek

Between trough and peak
