quiver …

of ALL -
open, closed, one dimensional
vibrating tendrils …
larger scales appear as the particle norm
antiphon??
charge, mass, gravitons
hot-affecting quantum states of matter
super-symmetry between bosons
fermions …
such weighty throb -
chaotic fields connected
influenced
shaken …
but still not clearly defined in all events -
not channeled to unification
but it MUST join
somehow ...
it's there, trembling like a horror -
an electromagnetic phantom
one of the weakest forces in all of the
physical universe
yet ...
far beyond grasp
our claws raking deep the flesh of wonder
fiery glyphs raised
but in excruciating futility …
one day we'll laugh at its simplicity
and that day ...
God.
will.

weep.

LOL - thank you so much, Maureen ... these little questions to the ether are always fun! The things that keep my mind spinning late at night, and keep me from the healing of sleep. There MUST be a purpose, right? Blessings, Friend! :o) <3
