Order

requires energy.

Disorder

requires nothing.

Leave anything alone

long enough

and it will not

organize itself.

It will not

maintain itself.

It will not

even stay

as it was.

This is not failure.

This is the default

direction

of everything.

The room stays clean

because someone

keeps cleaning it.

The relationship stays close

because someone

keeps choosing it.

Nothing holds its shape

by accident.
