Ordered Degree of Chaos

AND one hand clapping against 

the shuttered storm cellar doors is 

never a reason to deny ability:

like mushroom clouds as falling 

tears splatting fragments of 

dusted minds – by parched perched 

gills of neon fossils; the signs are

here, there, and within the ? of 

    a hungry-starved dying youth/

/-->the ordered degree of chaos!

  By opened minds the wheels turn
As curving fanning windmills churn;
  Abrasions of mental collisions
        As rough as life and art
(and smooth as death and data)

   as all atheist and scientist know
who cares if the tree makes a sound
when it dies  AND I say “hello” to

a black void but no reply, ergo:

AVOID.

Hi Taai - i normally do not comment on the meaning of my own prose unless i see a way to not be too intrusive. the last stanza concerns the 'learned' and 'educated' fellows who do not believe in post-mortem survival. IF we choose to follow their logic and scientific method we too shall believe there is nothing after physical death; to say hello to this black void will never conjure a reply so please avoid the void.
