on When I Heard the Learn'd Astronomer by Walt Whitman, on October 12, 2006
i read Castoneda and
wondered how much of it was true,
how much his experience while
dwelling upon those passages
where he flies
flies chained ,
(by some intermediary substance,and
the structure
of an old, clever, man's words),
to a molecule along the momentum
of a rushing river
to places thousands of miles away and
i puzzled at the familiarity,
the vagaries
of what exactly rang true.
i read that Chaos Theory novel and
marvelled at the latticework it revealed,
of fractal edges and gradual progressions -
a silent fugue of impossible
yet infinite divisions,
their unreasonable reality overcome
by mere mundanity.
i had a thought, i saw a vision.. felt
th presence,( more than twice)
of reality's flaring edge and i now see all
of existence via the spaces.in.between.
on The World by Henry Vaughan, on April 24, 2006

inspired.
this has to be one of my favourite poems... utterly inspired... it reminds me at this moment of Milton's "fix here ye overdated spheres that wing the restless foote of time!"
i am not religious but as a metaphysician i love this poem.
