Cancel out the Undertow

When below a certain threshold,
Our collective body plunges
Ever faster. Darker matters make us drop.


When the weight is overwhelming
We start pulling down each other,
Further hindering the efforts going up.


We descent when bottom heavy.
To return to higher to orbits
We must choose for bright affairs, while feeling low.


Lifting forces are outnumbered.
Give support too from down under.
Aid the fight to cancel out the undertow.
