Long Extrapolating Poems

Madison's defense of the establishment clause to the Virginia legislature:
"Religion both existed and flourished, not only without the support of human laws, but in spite of every opposition from them, and not only during the...

Exercising belief about unknowns.
Makes sense to take your best guess.
Using history, numbers, extrapolation.
Getting the trajectory right for re-entry.
Few dissenters left for climate change, evolution.
Nuclear power brings a process to earth
that occurs only in space. Dangerous
but...

We go through waking, dreaming and deep sleep,
imbibing impressions in accordance with our awareness,
strangely making peace with our self-evident ignorance,
living by instinct, investigating not the truth of our being,

My centre of gravity shifts
It's a theory I'm contemplating whilst leaning on a bannister
I'm perfectly safe, not about to topple over
My feet are steady
I need to work on my balance point
What tips me over
All the...

Quote my poet

Social xeriscaping, to be hardy type

COMMUNION

Divine splash of senses and emotions -
Michelangelo’s sensate visual of creation!

Articulation of a semi-conscious dream.
Other artists continue my work as they read -

extrapolating more from the marble,
