[hometext] => A combination of philosophy, metaphor, science, theory and a bit of obsession; a very long-winded piece indeed. It's my hope that, if nothing else, i've given the reader something to think about.
[bodytext] => A fragile mesh of thoughts and flesh, the human spirit writhes A wand'ring kind, of narrow mind, we shamble through our lives Our nebula, the formula, eludes understanding This universe of souls so terse, beyond man's commanding Of theories bound, no truth is found, just curiousity The more we grow, the less we know, to forge ahead blindly Eyes of machines, our only means, to gaze far distant lands That starry scene is labyrinthine, macrocosm expands Hypothesis, again we miss, once more square one rebounds Research unveils how science fails, these errors, loud, resound From accidents, coincidence, we know not why we're here A creator, in theater, whom we blankly revere Within our sphere, we never near, a goal we cannot reach A quest to find the things that bind, ourselves we try to teach This very world remains unfurled, before human vision Just out of grasp, we fail to clasp, delicate precision 'Mongst fading fires, within failure's flames Collective suspire, disproven claims Conclusions segmental, dead-end courses (These travels can't unravel) Four fundamental physical forces Random, thoughtless inspiration Often breeds miscalculation Prolonged bouts of exploration Serve to further this vexation The first of four anomalies The clutching claws of gravity A power great we cannot see Yet it pulls interminably With strength Earth orbits steadily With strength it breathes invisibly A quarter of complexity Cornerstone of fragility Unseen tetrad, twined quadratic An elemental schematic Crashing waves to lightning static Otherworldly systematic Nuclear force, both strong and weak It fuses protons at it's peak A cosmic spectre most unique Undoes the Sun's thermal mystique Radiation decay exists Nuclear pulse the catalyst As clear as ghosts, each form subsists These forces four, balanced, persist Microscopic, 'twixt a schism Burns electromagnetism Charged particles, matter's prism Protons bridged within abysm ...This universe harbors our race Our curse to live without a place We're destined now to never fit To question why, until we quit Scrivened inside our tomes to hide, confusion kept and penned A lost attempt, a race exempt, never to comprehend An unheard noise, an unseen poise, a balance firm and true Still searching high to prove a lie, we haven't but a clue ...Continually planes will shift As prisoners we're left adrift So limited by what we see Our fate to wander aimlessly Incomplete remains ev'ry mission Ten thousand years may bring us vision [comments] => 3 [counter] => 878 [topic] => 46 [informant] => Vitreous_Soul [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 8 [ratings] => 4 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => didactic )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
