In Pink and Rosé


IMG_4651 (1).jpg


contemplative
eager and ready
to fray the edges of physics
the only law that matters

double entendre
eureka and elemental
explosive and creative


IMG_4651.jpg



maybe
there may be
two laws
that join
meet in the middle

on solid ground

thought and energy
gravity and pressure
on the grey matter
matter together

IMG_4642 (5).jpg


maybe three
governed by five

see here

and

smell
touch
hear
taste

perceive

now there is existence


IMG_4642 (3).jpg


time is four
and bendable
absolutely breakable

somewhat undependable

but you do it
all the time

yes, you do


IMG_4641.jpg


dream
in pink and rosé
periwinkle and lavender
bewinged and mercurial

where whim
bends and breaks law
nothing matters
but everything has depth
color and feel

The seed does not know
Where the wind will take it
It leaves no footprint
To mar the pristine air

Only when it lands
Settles in the mud and dirt
Is it reborn

Transforming the barren
To the lush and productive
Breaking up the soil
Encouraging others
To follow its example
To grow

The teacher can only teach
Because ta has learnt
What another has not

Ta is not good
The student is not bad
Ta is not sharp
The student is not dull

Simply … ta de seed
Has landed
The other’s is in flight


IMG_4653 (3).jpg



Once coaxed to earth
The student becomes the teacher
The teacher becomes the student

All is new and unfolding

I've missed your writing since I left Steem a couple of years ago. Beautiful post.

Thank you, DaBeckstar:) So nice to have you back:)

No one else can blend physics and poetry! :) Always interesting.

Wonder if you have any thoughts on Eric Weinstein? He just released his theory of everything that he has been working on, but the thing is he keeps things lively agree or disagree. I like to hear him on Lex Fridman or even on Rogan.

Had to google him. I spend most of 'study time' either teaching my son Math or attending online SETI talks. I suppose when they get to him.

What is the gist?

I suppose they would probably disregard me because I do not disregard the obvious existence of the metaphysical ... like our thoughts and their power and not ghosts and such. When I write poetry; I try to let go and 'receive'. I never know what is going to come out.
