O, YOYO!

I am chaos
I am the substance from which your artists and scientists build rhythms
I am the spirit with which your children and clowns laugh in happy anarchy
I am chaos
I am alive, and I tell you that you are free

Upside down stanza reads (my edits/reversals):

I am order
I am the rhythms to which your artists and scientists build substance
I am the frame in which your adults and tragedians sob in minor harmony
I am order
I am free, and I tell you that you are alive


The first stanza is the original paragraph verbatim, separating each sentence with line break instead of period. It can be found on page 9 of the Principia Discordia, here.
