like the old philosophers
we sit around thinking
our heart beats ununified
unknowingly we strangle
the strange creative
confirming laws
long of no use
we yearn for freedom
and it dwells in our heads
in our bodies, the universe
yet we grasp it not
laughter echos hollow
through the spirals of time
tears evaporate
as if they never existed
whilst we sit and think
atoms move, matter expands
our mind and time
withering senile
in our petty consciousness
our nano moment of life
we achieve nothing
our purpose null
aah, but still, to live
is a marvel unsurpassed
an explosion of brilliance
so very bright
the textures of life
mutating in varience
anything is possible
we are frozen, astonished
disabled to alternate dimensions
understanding glimmering faintly
that no one thing stands alone
and that around here
all is one
astonishing
delightful universe

- Science fiction reader. I read to relax and because I am curious. I like data. I buy books in book stores and I download to my kindle, as well as read on my pc screen, I also write for fun. You won't believe the things authors have me imagining !
