Elusive Rambling

Disarmed

Bullets fall silent
against words
well chosen

Their caliber
muted
- the target on fire

Stuck In Gear

Motion
not an absolute
The world
is never still

Inertia
tries to write the law
Where stop and start
are nil

History
at the speed of light
Consensus
in the math

But standing
here
While stuck in gear
- the notion leaves me flat

Before The After

Don't bog down
in research
Spontaneity
the thing
Truth
is most elusive
And joy
a passing Spring

In flashes
of an instant
What's timeless
will appear
Thinking often
kills the goose
That lays
- both far and near

Deafening Silence

Things most often named
before understood
Then never renamed
for the bad or the good

‘Particles of light'
we now know as waves
But ad infinitum
their reference stays

A ‘Tablet of Paper'
consisting of sheets
Two ‘Bolts' of lightning
fused Franklin's belief

A ‘Softball's' still deadly
meant to careen
And ‘Deafening Silence'
- spurs wonder indeed


(Villanova University: March, 2024)
