Stability

A myrmecologist
Defines stability
As a cline—how often

And how much change occurs.
How often and how much—
Can either one be set

To zero? What’s the max?
Are the units the same
For frequent as great change?

Are lots of baby steps
(Ant steps?) equivalent
To a singular leap?

This is a stable poem.
Small words shifted. None plunged.
