Observance
Observance
by Michael R. Burch
Here the hills are old and rolling
carefully in their old age;
on the horizon youthful mountains
bathe themselves in windblown fountains...
By dying leaves and falling raindrops,
I have traced time's starts and stops,
and I have...

Divine Comedy Translation, Hell Canto Xi
On the extremity of a tall bank
Of big broken stones in round circle done
We reached up a more cruel clutter flank;
And there, for the horrible and strong stun
Of rotten stench which the deep...

Bucky's Wealth of Information
Universal information,
form emerging from multisystemic diastasis,
is composed of fractal syntax,
primally illustrated by looking at RNA,
then DNA,
binomially re-cognizing bilateral temporal memory
as formative id-entity.
Universal polynomial language
is to in-form-ionization
as polycultural outcomes are to unitarian
organic-integral-synergetic
life-systemic
sacred semantics.
As LeftBrain dominant

Dark Matter Matters
Dark matter seems to be
What isn’t there to be seen
In between
What we see.
They dub it dark since you cannot detect it
Nor can they inspect it
With telescopy.
Yet, while it can’t be descried
It cannot be denied
For equations...

A Most Disruptive Sleep Psyche Violently Pummeled
A most disruptive sleep - psyche violently pummeled
Upon awakening earlier today
(May 26th, 2020)
felt utterly fatigued without fail
tormenting dreams found yours truly
jangled, harried and
frenzied across broadscale
valiant effort to remain awake
exerted to no avail.
Exhaustion pounded noggin

Last Hopes Which Lay
Last hopes which lay
Flashing lightening and huge thunders,
And marching rain through blackening nights,
Sitting on top of shaking chair
With hopes of passing time under darkening nightmare;
Silent act of lightening candle
And sticking to the lonliness at stay
And...

Gods of Winds
Notus comes creeping furtively from the south
hot and bothered from the blazing summer sun.
The wind of change...concealed it launches sudden storms
as clouds pile up across the sky, dark and towering,
lightning flashes, thunder drawls, torrential rain...

Vis Gelu - the Power of Ice
Ice is the strangest substance
upon this earth then yet it
is seen as insignificant by
many.
It forms from water-droplets
within clouds, flowing rivers
and even in oceans where energy
is forever in motion.
It floats when it should sink;
density is transformed...

A November Day
The morn dawned bright, with autumnal light,
the cool air was crisp and clean:
overnight snows that fell, as all could tell,

Sounds heard shrill, through air coldly still,
birthed echoes, sharp and long,
whilst the...

Religiously Spiritual
There’s no spirituality in religion

One is religiously unspiritual
The other, spiritually unreligious!

One is the fallacy of the mind
The other
