Lovely poem, Brian! I really liked how the first part of the poem is a series of descriptive, evocative noun phrases. Just pointing things out without making any particular assertions about them so far. Then finally you let us know it's about slanted things (the title was a nice hint too, of course).

I think there is a great letting in slants. Letting gravity do its work. Harmony with the fundamental way of things.

Agreed. Life is better when we don’t struggle against it….
