one ITSELF
CHIRALITY
If I didn’t need
to do anything,
would I?
Would I oscillate
in two
or three dimensions?
Would I summon
a beholder
and change chirality
for “him?”
A massless particle
passes through the void
with no resistance.
Ask what it means
to pass through the void.
Ask how it differs
from not passing.
A CONCEIT
Local anchors list the ways
viewers might enjoy tomorrow.
One says, “Get some great …,” but
that seems like a stretch.
The other snickers, meaning,
“Where were you going with that?”
Like you thought
Like you could defend
vanity
in the sense of
idle conceit,
vacuous self-
absorption,
doing whatever
it takes to
whatever
because,
really.
As if to say,
“Conceit
is the vacuum energy.”
SPLIT
Because you dodge
yourselves
by branching,
(expelling particles
of light).
Because you split
no-difference,
sights strike me
as
A muscular gray cat
trots
along the top of
the cinderblock wall
separating my couch
from the supermarket.
25% say, “That’s
just it, Pam!”
I take these
white streaks
of truck
glimpsed
between branches
to be blossoms.
INDUCTION
What’s the take-away?
Carrying plastic buckets,
an old couple stroll
along the high-water mark.
The rapture: such
wings of cloud —
sleeves of fire
as previously noted.
Passing obliquely
through the interface,
desire is refracted.
Low sun illuminates
a row of amber
pill bottles,
half full.
CONCLUSION
1
A man is upset for many years
because he’s heard
that information is destroyed
in a black hole.
