Premium MemberGod's Haiku

a sugar maple leaf slips free


                    counting toward One proof
                    the Seven Mysteries


God, I count prime gaps
I watch prime numbers growing
only primes orbit

a rule sends one step
loops return periods double
recursion counts One

an iteration
within fluid smoothness frays
water turns inward

can you see the curve
study elliptic rank shifts
findings test the rank

questions spiral out
unknown patterns circle back
pi bends into sight

a proof can be checked
still search cannot prove it now
checking outruns search

every loop turns east
the count folds back into form
through form, God's Haiku

       the sugar-maple leaf settles on frost

       children of the corn start to awaken


Premium MemberWhen the Earth Replies

Fierce updrafts surge, the wild winds rise,
And hurl the drops to freezing skies.
The ice and hail will smash and pack,
Inside the towering thunder-back.
Collisions strip the charges bare,
As static tension rips the air.
Light crystals float to upper height,
While heavy graupel sinks like night.
Sparks zigzag down, a leader low,
Stepping below a ghostly glow.
The fields skyrocket, voltages soar,
To crack the sky and strike the floor.
Sudden awaking, the earth responds,
A surge of power breaks its bonds.
The trees and towers stretch and strain,
To thrust their streamers through the rain.
The channels splice and circuits close,
A blinding flash of lightning glows.
Volt-ignited, the atmosphere
Roars as the thunder shakes the sphere.

Premium MemberFuneral of Fireflies

I 
corked
the last 
lightning bug
in this Coke bottle,
too precious for any matchbox,
distinguishing it from slugs, snips, spineless annelids;
for no other reason than juvenile sensibilities, vainglorious captures,
nothing for practical science, all to preserve a boyish reputation that made me aleatory, dire, perilous, savage, bland 
but pride, quaintly, comes as I bear its marginal light, dwindling the dutiful darkness of evening, like faint choking hymns of elder choristers; hence I pray it shall be till morning, since fireflies have no engagements with the sun

Premium MemberElemental Haikus' Connection to Mars

Earth:

Take off from the mass
Grounding oneself means standing
Barefoot on the grass

Water:

Fills every cranny
Obscure holes are discovered
Circulates freely

Air:

Time to rise to heights
Flight welcomes the curious
Breathe in wise insights

Fire:

Light shining above
Beckoning all Cosmic kin
Through beams they all love

Spirit:

A dream sparks on Mars
Spirits beam us way up there
To converse with Stars

Dream:

Dreams give hope to all.
Why not fly upward in Space?
Bright elementals! 

Goal:

I'm flying to Mars.
I am on Mars in spirit.
Will be there on foot!

Premium MemberSpeaking through nature

Like the bombardier beetle
with an advanced weapons system 
It can expel an intense hot liquid  pulsating jet of words 
it blinds the frog before he can croak 
aiming its turret in any direction with accuracy 
After the ejection of each explosion 
that of the boiling pressurised fluid
we can see the bug in politics talks hot air from the rear
a weapon system that science can't work out 
I can see now why they dig for  
it helps to cover over their trail in leading the blind 
over the cliffs where they fall victim to a deadly cause 
That which shifts the whole nature of things to suit tyrants 
those whom play a hand in killing

Premium Memberthe wet dream

Trump says global warming’s a hoax
Florida floods—just nature’s jokes 
Prepared Don is not
He acts like on pot
We think he’s had too many tokes.

Premium MemberAn Amoeba's Song

A brave sailor who sails the high sea
will aim knowing his aft from his lee,
but Brownian motion,
that fabulous notion,
works well for an amoeba like me.

Premium MemberComplex Chamcha

CHAMCHA bowls low, his tongue sharp and slick,
OUTWASH of virtue, a torrent too quick.
MEDEVAC soars through chaos and strife,
PHELLEM guards trees, as bark shields its life.
LEUCOMA, the veil dims visions once bright,
EPITAPH whispers of days lost to night.
XANTHIC hues glow, a promise of light.

Premium MemberA Dew Drop

A perfect sphere,
a teardrop of light,
surface tension 
holds it,
a crystal prism,
bending dawn's blush.

Tiny,
0.02-0.5mm,
a pearl on a blade of grass,
condensation's breath,
on a clear night,
humidity's sigh,
dew-point's kiss.

A fresh start,
a photographer's dream,
nature's alchemy,
a water source,
for the spider,
for the plant.

Purity,
is a new beginning.
Moisture whispers,
science in droplets.

Premium MemberFarewell to Summer - 2024

Falling Autumn leaves brashly wave goodbye to Summer
And strew the pathways with emeralds, rubies, and gold.
Radiant beauty engages the land in mummer
Encouraging Summer to relent and let loose its hold.
Watching with glum expression and immodest dress,
Eventually losing the tug-of-war with the chill cold. 
Life and death become the drum to which She will bend
Leaving the breathless Wind time to nimbly mend. 
 
Tomorrow She moves forward 
Onward from time borrowed. 
 
Sulking away with dried diamonds
Until Autumn’s auric sky explodes
Mindfully exposing Her horizons.
Memory of Summer implodes.
Efficacious efforts of Her victory,
Reign of Autumn’s golden glory.

Premium MemberMagnification

Close up, secrets uncovering
I find myself hovering over
a modern, optical microscope
Out of focus (coarse adjustment)
Blurred image corrected,
revealing… clear-felled trees?
Sharper detail (fine adjustment)
Microscope mesmerizing as colors burst
Scale thickness less than 0.55 micron
Small rake angle and smoothness
implies low friction coefficient
Light permanence even, shadowless—
Finest quality from Istanbul
Wish I had a roomful

Premium MemberKomorebi karma

Dull clouds are backdrop for another dreary day
Glancing around, he sets off on his daily walk 
Tree umbrellas cast dark shadows across woodland floors
Mist swirls around trunks, glides across glades
He walks on as shafts of sunlight beckon change
Clouds recede, warmth and light strengthen
Bright streaks pierce treescape
He marvels at shadows dancing with light
Such spontaneous pleasure warms body and soul
Reminds him life is too short to live in shadows
Komorebi karma strikes
