A Quantum Singularity

A Quantum Singularity (c) by the Entangled Pair 2025
 
A quote from a poem I wrote in 1963 called 'Syntropy':

'That which is not being synergetic must be becoming entropic. There is no middle ground'.

Me:
Being synergistic, the whole of us surpasses the sum of our parts. Love that,

The Wormhole Wore a Waistcoat

She entered unannounced; no bell, no brass. The aperture, a bureaucratic lapse in Nature’s accounting, permitted transit for the curious, not the wise. Through corridors of warped conjecture, she drifted—unclaimed luggage of a thought experiment. Each particle bowed with procedural discipline; each law maintained protocol under duress.

The stars retracted their nominations, preferring anonymity to metaphor.

Impossible mission for systematization to be wrung out of entropy

Which lame excuse I exclaimed,
when my dear old mom asked
rather told me in her scolding voice
to tidy up my bedroom,
cuz this son of a gun
intuited neatening (organizing)
one infinitesimal corner of the cosmos,
(a veritable pinpoint of nothingness -
our house at blank address)
hence an excellent reason
as lamely iterated

Purpose or Obliteration

I dreamed I was inside a bulb—
a cathedral of filament and glass—
not dead
not born…..
but shumming**.

Glass walls curved like time
sealed but translucent

my fingers curled around voltage
like a secret
God was transcending.

The socket hummed a lullaby
of static.

Every breath of mine made sparks
the air electric
with grief
and longing.

I saw myself outside the bulb
in a room wallpapered with eyes—
each iris twitching
like

Prolegomena Soliloquy - Pt 2

I have measured the math of a mustard seed,  
     traced the geometry of origin,  
     the angles of mercy,  
run fingers over the ridges of history  
     and found Him—  

in carbon’s conspiracy,  
  

Prolegomena Soliloquy - Pt 1

Tell me, my friend,  
does infinity not unsettle your reason,  
or is it a comfort—to believe it meaningless?  

Look beyond the rust of your disbelief—  
this isn’t the frostbitten dogma you imagine.  
This is the marrow of things,  
     the architecture of why.

MIRZA GHALIB ENGLISH TRANSLATIONS

Urdu poems about tyranny, the world, sky, sun, wind, night, faith, roses, creation & entropy.

Tyranny adores those who adore the tyrant.
—Mirza Ghalib, translation by Michael R. Burch

Having adopted a mendicant’s rags, Ghalib,
I’m amazed by the spectacle of generous people.
—Mirza Ghalib, translation by Michael R. Burch

I keep up awhile with each new jogger

Entropy

I want someone to snuggle under a blanket with,
to watch TV,
or for fingers to run softly through my hair
while I read, my head in their lap.
I want someone to kiss me goodnight.
And good morning.
Go to work. Pay the bills.
Buy me a gift—just because.

But phones ring, and doors knock,
and emails chime.
Kids scream, and I scream,
Ice cream,
Trucks

''NFC'': Entropy COMPLETE

Energy found its way through the rigorous
rigamarole of trial and error of those persistent
like the Wright Brothers, the Curies, or Thomas 
Edison, and others. The close failures were consistent.
At the time, based on their hypothesis
that it will benefit all living-kind existent.
Yet they were all clueless to the vigorous
negativity that their inventions will be hell-bent.

Winter Solstice and Musings On The Entropy of Love

Unable to sleep or pray, I stand  
by the window looking out—  
at moonstruck trees a December storm  
has bowed with ice.

White Oaks and Maples concede  
beneath the crystalline weight,  
their branches falling brittle upon  
a frozen tableau of memory.

Love—that old revolutionary road,  
veers sideways toward scrutiny; 

Entropy

The older I get 
The weaker and slower
And more tired I get
(with, from, of)
And the less I care
(about, for, to).

When I was younger 
I guess I saw this coming,
At least I saw it in old people,
But I never thought it would happen to me.

Now here it is
And I don’t really care.

I suppose it’s a natural

Entropy

Rock
Hard place 
Rock
Hard place 
Your fist 
My face

Exhausted.....

I rest
My head
On your chest

You say that 
You're right 
Which again
Starts a fight
This scene it plays out
Each and every night

A rock
And a hard place
My fist
And your face

Relationship 
Unrecognizable 
Our differences 
Irreconcilable 

Our anger is pent
Patience is spent
All that's left is resent

This life
Not for the faint
Of heart
No remorse 
No

Entropy

’I can’t believe I thought that’, I told her
Wishing it were true.

I know friendship is built on truth and trust
But I just

Can’t let her see it.
Expose the expiration of my heart.

I won’t wear it on my sleeve
Because I would hate to admit

how it bleeds.

‘I can’t believe I thought that’, I told her
But hours later,

You walk

God's Entropy

Oh, Angel!
When I was dreaming of darkness,
you woke me up to colours.

Oh, Divine anomaly!
who could grow plant-sweet,
under moonlight's shadow.

Oh, Perfect tree!
whom even White-hole envies,
and Eve is left pitied.

Oh, My sweet EVA!
your tea helped my hangover!
wish my biryani gives you eternal hangover!
