Balance and Vision
In all of us
The inner ear
The cochlea hears
The labyrinth senses orientation
Hair cells sense motion
Each hair cell signals
Movement of the ìhairsî
Tilt and slide
Crystals in your ear
Turn
Fluid filled rings
A sail in your ear
Nerves carry the information
The brain links ear and eye
The ear moves the eye
Without orientation, vision fades
What you see with your head still
You do not see when you move
Vision aids balance and posture
If the ear fails, vision saves us
