Reflection

The only thought in God’s head is 
Being. 
Existence 
is the choice that Free Will made. 
To be and know necessitates “seeing,” 
and seeing requires
both light and shade. 
The fractal fabric of ontology – 
endless Mandela of lights and darks 
that likens micro to cosmology, 
the music of spheres 
to the spin of quarks – 
reflects upon itself at every scale 
and mirrors 
“the world in a grain of sand,” 
analyzes the ocean in a pail 
and makes us want to learn 
and understand, 
since, 
due to Creation’s consistency, 
we are not lost in random irony.

I enjoyed your poem -- pithy lines, well balanced, and thoughtful...mentally stimulating as well. Good work.
