Imbalance: two golden cups, diametrically opposed, make Portia’s prop.
Knowing not what either holds or the depth of the dip, only that
There are things one can add to the cup on the left, spoonfuls of sand.
There are tools to be tried. Not that they’ll level the field
As butter-knife flat as you’d like, but certainly they will
Lessen the gap, make a gesture towards, a feint of librium.
Come to rest.
Lesser imbalanced, companionable, better beknownst.
