Equilibrium (originally "Gravity")
#2
Hi Paul, I have yet to unlock this totally, however there is something about it that I really like. Even though I haven't finished with it I've left a couple of thoughts whilst at the same time taking it back up the list to give it some fresh air.

I am wobbly. --- The whole poem has the overall feel of a riddle especially the opening
I am crippling honesty
hunched on a hung-over tongue. --- Love the sonics of these two lines
I am not your garden variety twisted ankle --- I think 'garden variety' should be hyphenated
or splitting head. --- Is this meant to be 'splitting headache' or 'split head' or is it indeed short for 'splitting headache' it feels as though it may be a colloquial thing
 
The weight of you is not centered.
You should know by now
exactly how this pendulum swings:
indefinitely,
looking for balance in what you just said.
I get the play with the different meanings of gravity but I seem to be missing the key to tie it altogether or am I looking too hard for something that isn't there and missing the obvious. Like I say, it has got something about it that I really like and it sounds excellent when read out loud. I know this won't be a massive help to you but for the moment it's all I've got and I wanted to say at least something.

Cheers for the read,

Mark
