Beyond the Grid

1. Whenever the truest edge doesn’t hold, Another existence it does belie. When causality is a broken line, Unseen variable has cracked the mold. Simple cause and effect gets in trouble Abstruse patterns underlie life’s events. Straight Euclidean angles and tangents Reveal deep truth when they twist and bubble. Infinite weaving of the light and dark, That from which all matter derives its form, That from which all shades and colors are born, Folding, animated by unseen spark: Zero Point made of unbound potential. Infinity in nothing, essential. 2. A cause contains more than it alleges. If all you can see are random events, Assume that it must be coincidence Occam’s razor it seems has two edges The surface, outer manifestation The solid, visible three dimensions Concentrate, more enters your attention: Substance beyond the realm of sensation. Bursting through material pretension, What unimaginable things are hid Beyond the visible Cartesian grid To unfold from another dimension? The depth remains unseen, passes us by Except in dreams, when the mind’s eye can fly. 3/23/16 Hybrid Italian/Shakespearean Sonnets Abba cddc effe gg (x2)
