Glacier On the Ocean

Green waves of the ocean
Are in insipid and pale combination
With very striking sapphire blue
Of the glacier

The evolution gave man 
Ability to use tools
But to learn to use them
Man needs schools

But what if someone could use all tools
In abstract idea of tools
And could turn any tool
To make any other tool

For example he could turn no matter and no space
To tool that is beyond matter or space
And he would have ability
To further control his destiny

To use next step in evolution
And step after that in entire 360 degree revolution
Entire spectrum of that evolution
This would be revolution

Even more profound ability
If what to ancient Greeks was infinity
This infinity would be to everything
Absolutely everything

And what writing of universal laws is to infinity
This ability 
Would be
To this absolute infinity

This however is all
Not food for the soul
Like the insipid green of waves
There is no heaven in those waves

But the glacier would reflect no less
Than meaning in meaningless
This true heaven would be
I hope I can make it part of my destiny
