The Polarity Tree--
The polarity tree..
Another label and story
But what is there without
Labels and stories..
It is a pine tree with
Nothing atop and a
Wide flaring skirt below..
Nothing and everything..
Sameness up and down:
Nothing appears as
The branches and needles..
Enter the characters the
Individual needles
Multiplicities increasing
As Nothing seems to recede..
Yet Nothing does not recede
Only the needles seem to move
And live and die..
Sparseness and denseness
Higher and lower
That's a continuing story...
