Some people say you're Charming.
Others think you're Strange.
From the Top Up to the Bottom Down
there's nothing I'd rearrange....

Quarks, bosons and gluons
    Atom-smashers collide with a pop

  Temperatures over 4 trillion degrees ~
    'Big Bangs' leak into a mop...

Quickly, dear scientists!
quest after their secrets!
Quench curious scholars'
queries before these motes,
quarrelsome particles,
quietly die in the
quantum cosmos beyond.

singularity
to seething mass of plasma
cosmos comes awake

vast galaxies are formed
trillions of planets are born
existence awaits

from giant black holes
to minute quarks changing state
all is just a phase...

Marrakech and Bangladesh
       My recall's not that fresh...

     On to the parts of the limbic system
       In school, I usually missed 'em

     Quarks, photons, bosons, and gluons
       Art class? Cut and paste?

     All that stuff you're supposed to learn
       ~ Seems like quite a waste...

I'm a big fan of Doctor Who.
I'm talking about the classic series, not the new.
The Doctor defeated the Daleks, the Zygons and the Cybermen.
He also defeated the Master, the Rani, the Quarks and Zoden.
The first episode was aired over fifty years ago in November of 1963.
Tom Baker was my favorite Doctor, my 2nd favorite was Jon Pertwee....

Here’s my chores
duty become burden
unless glued as necessary

Skills to handle outer injection
broken balance reclaims future 
lit in beam to disclose
one tiny matter all applause

Named it many as disclosed
left to right, up to down
like duck as quarks
runs in human body

Partition so many 
how matter differs in cell
Short circuit I have

Sour future -Domini-...

blub big blue blazing 
bedazzling boisterous 
brilliant beacon bright

pulsar pulsates  
projecting prominently
pinpoint precisely 

quixotic quasars
quintillion quarks quirkiness
quantum quintessence

wind whirl waves
watery whirlpool
wreckage washed-up

whimsical weasel
waterfall weathered willow
wilderness walk 

zoo zebra zip
zealous zoologist
zeal zen

villas villages
vestige views valley vinca
vacation venues...

Where my head is my mind’s not there
Might as well be in my knees 

Quarks and quasars supercollide 
In never-ending demented searches 

I move in and out so easily
Now that I know where the between is

Experience memory fantasy 
Doesn’t matter anyway

Grade school names not heard in years
Father John hasn’t aged a day 

It’s just a speaker and a body here
In a metaphorical quandary 

Music and I don’t take up space
We make each other real
