Part 1- Driving down an open road, lost among the trees. The closer they come, the faster they seem to approach me-- the parallax: a change in the angle as it relates to the position from which I see. And from here we can measure the stars closer to us from those more distant, regardless of one shining more brightly. Caught in a curvature on a cosmic cruiser, we travel around the sun-- an ordinary star among billions, average in size, glowing yellow in our sky. A heart, fusing hydrogen to helium atoms, set on the edge of a spiral arm. We glimpse only a mere fraction with the naked eye-- just .0001% of those formed over time, gathered on a barred spiral we call the Milky Way. Herschel painstakingly categorized the s...

Hushed but not silent, destined for collision, even clashing with itself, Gravity is not a force like other forces, but a consequence of space-time, not being flat-- a curved surface, warped by the distribution of mass, energy in the objects, following the nearest straight path. Upon a geometric surface, where geodesics exist-- like our equator, a circle, 'round the center of Earth. These are invisible curved lines between two points, pilots capitalize on. Shortening routes by flying parallel with the Earth's spherical design. Jumping from 2 to 4 dimensions-- it is not gravitational attraction, rather, a distortion in space around objects. Like the sun and the Earth, caught in a curvature created by these heavenly masses. Two bodies, intertwined in a dance, Both calling and answering. Imp...

Into the cosmos Roemer gazes, watching distant planets making note of different phases, identifying patterns in the celestial movements. What of the eclipsing moons of Jupiter-- unevenly spaced, a delayed event, based on our position and their place. He purposes a new hypothesis: suggesting a finite speed. That light must travel between objects, albeit very quickly. 186,000 miles a second, in fact but not instantaneous C. And to prove that, Maxwell unifies partial theories determining the propagation of light-- electric and magnetic, charges and currents. Fields exerting force upon those around it. A sea of perfectly distributed peaks and valleys. Crests and troughs, naturally occurring with different lengths. Electromagnetism emerges. Like ripples in a pond from the epicenter, waves all rollin...

What is our natural state? At rest, driven by impulse, falling faster in congruence with our weight-- conjectures of thought unobserved and disproven. Simulating different masses, there is no difference: increasing speed at the same rate, except in the case of resistance. What is our natural state? A force that must be reckoned with, a body in motion until acted upon. We just keep moving forward, accelerating or decelerating in proportion to our surroundings-- sometimes crashing down, or thrown out of orbit. Perhaps it is our natural state to be caught up in gravity's wake, consistent with our distance, falling at the same velocity relative to our physical place. Newton's Law relates, unconcerned with the rotating rock the train is moving on, or the ping-pong ball not bouncing off the table on which it is played. ...

We mistake theories for models that only exist in the mind, making definite predictions based on large-scale observations using a handful of arbitrary elements. But unlike earth, air, fire, and water, distinguished by all our senses, there lives a force--  proportional to its mass, and the square of two objects' distance. An eloquent proof  of a delicate and physical dance. Experiments devised to falsify, emboldened confidence, or demoralized by refutation, upon further evidence--   justify further pursuits. And new theories begin to extend the old ones: from Newton's gravity comes Einstein's relativity, explaining Mercury's revolution with greater accuracy. So too might we strive to contrive that of everything? Our current laws informing us, we anticipate with our logic gates how our last step shaped our present place yet, still we contemplate: what was our initial state? Whether it be a metaphysical  or a religious take, within an otherwise random design we fo...

Ourselves wanderers, taking leave on ships— distances miscalculated, sailing toward unknown lands. We vanish on the horizon, as do constellations drift, never having reached the edge.   We write stories, diverse and unique, shaped by our own perspectives. We dive deeper upon discovery, of truths that do not fit our own narratives.   Mercury, Venus, Mars,  Jupiter, Saturn— puzzle pieces,  not moving east to west predicting positions, but lacking proofs. Are we, or are we not, at the center of it?   Following our starry pleasures into the serried multitude, until our feet no longer touch the Earth— finding ourselves untethered, jetting through unoccupied space, harnessing the laws of planetary motion, caught in the orbit, questioning matters both dark and reflective.   The gravity, governing, forceful, and unseen; we cast our shadows unifying celestial and terrestrial physics. While our m...

It is strange and wonderful  that each body contains remnants of a remote time and deep space. Yet we still struggle to find our place— to seek meaning in what might otherwise be an indistinguishable existence of great insignificance.   The cosmos is too vast to comprehend, its distances unfathomable. Yet that has never stopped us from contemplating our ability to traverse it— as if that alone would justify our part in it. As the echoes of supernovae prove  here a star once existed.   The warmth of our Sun is insatiable; we long for the next nearest, Proxima Centauri, ten thousand of our own years away. We imagine alien life as a complement to our own origin story, filling in ancient fables, bolstering old myths, searching for truth hidden in the darkness.   We dedicate our entire lives to a quest only future generations might come to realize. We build towers, temples, and telescopes to feel closer to what is far beyond our reach— to seek understanding, to elev...

Emperor Penguins and Gibbons endure Great hardships unique to their respective environments Braving antarctic winters and tropical forest perils In monogamous partnerships A united front against the outside world They learn to sing together Tunes unique to each pair The strength of their bond on full display In a wild romance And yet as the highest order of primates With everything at our fingertips We are reluctant We even dance alone On poles, and in alley-ways Abandoning the synchronized choreography In which both partners take flight Unlike the Albatross, it is not fidelity, But seduction we've been taught "Birds do it, bees do it, even educated fleas do it" But, wait, that's just love… Swans do it, Prairie Voles do it, even California Mice do it When did it become so difficult for us? Commitment, the highest ...

Moonlight streams through a cracked windowsill, Sheer curtains billow in the light breeze. I am lying in an empty room, Beneath cool sheets, Imagining you beside me— Your long, heavy breath Along my back, The warmth from your body, The weight of your arm Hooked around my chest. In a chaotic world, I am at rest, In the safest place— Building a nest, woven with blessings, Handled with love carried in on angel wings. I haven’t quite yet fallen asleep; I am too excited, Finally having caught up with my dreams— Those of you and me. I think, I may no longer ever need to sleep— Not, at least, to see you, Now here with me... I turn around to kiss you, To lay my ear upon your chest; I long for the sound of your heart’s beat... But am met with empty space, and silence. That’s when it hits me— Reality. Still beneath the cool sheets, Not warmed by your body, I cling tightly to your memory, To the moment...

There are days when I remember the delicate closeness of just existing alongside you. The curve of your porcelain lips and the curl in your golden hair. The tenderness with which I’d reach for you, and the timidness of my touch. You were like a flower petal I dared not disturb with my clumsiness— and yet I always wanted to keep you crushed up against my chest, secured in a well-stitched pocket, held so tightly that you’d feel my heart beating. A rhythm that you might get used to, walk in step to— one that, across any distance, would call to you. An inaudible hum; a resonance only you were attuned to. I still feel my fear of inadequacy, how I knew I’d let us down, and had no way to divert this inevitability. The desperation I felt with each moment that passed us by— moments I couldn’t keep snapped in a picture book, framed on a shelf, or go back to and redo. Some stupid gesture I made, or statement that slipped out. I loved yo...

there is no good day to fight. to wage war. there is no good day to die though many of us may say so. there are many good days to live and yet most are spent unlived. trapped in battles either in our head, or in fields far from our homeland. global strategies sought to bring us closer, crumble in our agony. failed attempts at securing diplomacy among nations opposed to our form of democracy. hypocratic oaths having ensured no one's safety illness, both viral and cancerous, both from within and from without, bringing death to the forefront the grimacing reaper the masqued rider this is a modern day horror story. but it is not a fictional telling of some dystopian future it is here, it is now we are living a nightmare trapped in a dream where our every desire is streamlined hooked up to a dopamine machine drones, but oblivious to our surroundings we are fighting ourselves  unable t...

On my frequent walks Through the neighborhoods Around town I often hear an owl Though I can not see it I search among the trees Knowing it is there It's figure hidden In the leaves, and It reminds me of you Like the sun and the moon Sharing the same sky Playing different roles But ever present One not always within the other's sight But whose arrival is guaranteed Forgiven for not always returning At the same time Like waves being pulled in And out with the tide By a celestial guide There is rhythm in each motion A count, a lullaby A beat to build on Set tempo to The foundation of a song Hoo Hoo Even the birds sing to Miles from the shore A melody carried in the wind The rushing roar of the ocean Never really ending But ebbing and flowing Rising and falling The cycle of precipitation Caught in the atmosphere A silly little bird Having fun as the clouds draw near ...

I find my heart both breaks and rebuilds itself in fractals Shattering in perfect order Along paths that needed redistributing As the shapes shift Along with the size Of each load-baring wall A new dome is created Where light is let in Not hiding the cracks But exposing the mortar I am littered with Mosaic temples and Girih shrines Covered in universal geometric designs Speaking to me, reaching out Through the fabric of time A reminder of my fate Being part of a larger paradigm One which I am not meant to see From a distance, but more intimately To know the structure To care for it tenderly To seal the surface After each seismic refraction Lay temple to pray in Keep sanctity Where ripples dance In a Fibonacci romance Where the sum of two Is always greater than That which preceded it

When I said I loved you I meant, with you I felt safe When you wrote this upon my leg The word, 'Safe' I thought to myself What a beautiful world we now live in One in which we both found haven After such a treacherous road We'd both crossed Finding ourselves unbroken Two whole people Ready to face the world again Wrapped in new love, open and willing I'll never know what happened Not to that day Or that moment in time I could not capture I could not keep What I was so certain then was mine The tenderness of so many memories Only to be lost with time As safety became an illusion Our words sharp as knives This world we had created Now broken, living separate lives I do not remember What other words you had written Nor do I recall all that's been said But I know what we had found Was overridden On another timeline, with a new sound When I said I loved you I had meant it,...

As I woke up from what may have been a dream I saw your face before me unable to make out the details I felt your warmth your presence from within squinting into the darkness adjusting to the light I reached out for you my grasp not catching and into the fog you faded I ran making helicopter motions with my arms swinging desperately I could not take flight without you you were within me and yet lost somewhere out there in the mist too cold for breading grounds but they say the birds call this the south winter is not new to me, oft' caught out of season staying too long, giving every reason I knew you before this year, this time and space I woke up one day and saw your face I was scarlet draped in hair you stood there, not giving a damn a high hill to climb, the strong will good things come in good time and I knew from that very moment from which I awoke, that you were mine the beat of your heart,...

In a place that has not been At a time that does not exist I kissed you once I felt your skin upon my skin It could not be mistaken The energy that passed between Forever changed in direction A depolarization, only to be returned Upon awakening In this world, not yet observed What is possible seems endless My imagination run amuck Making quite a mess of it Of which I care not I swim in the seas of no regret I blow like the wind through the trees I rustle the leaves I sing, from the mountain top And upon my knees Knowing only the need The craving, the desperate plead It is here I planted the seed I saluted the sun Prayed to the heavens above Not to be denied this one love But it was only upon the horizon I was to see, a holograph of what could be Information collected Having been only from my perspective Would never be enough to create certainty Like entropy, my memory I began to question thi...

After the K-Pg event The world was anything but silent While it rebuilt itself around me New formations of land rose and fell Beloved dinosaurs standing no longer Stuck in tar, unable to feed any more I felt great loss all around me Yet it was here I saw for the first time The birds developed before my eyes I heard their first chirps Observing as they leapt My breath caught in my chest Upon their first soaring The sky was blue and blood red The fires had not yet calmed Volcanic debris constantly scattering Lava rocks began forming It was an untamed land Not yet ready for farming We were still scavengers Picking at scraps, the life Left in the corpses Where we found our sustenance In what had been left behind Not yet devoured By the gaping hole The broken earth The unsteady ground We walked on It only felt as if the world had ended But proof lay all around us New creatures evolved from the as...

A girl fell in love with a boy He did not know her, nor she him But something in the stars had told Of their coming together, an omen Nebulous, perhaps, to begin The girl followed her heart, she wrote him She wrote and wrote, without fail For to know, she must confess The longing within her, the tenderness Never letting doubt dissuade Never letting it creep in This was her dream, in which she had awakened Like, "The Dawn of a New Era… three decades ago" She, too, had burst, flinging star dust Out into the universe, carrying hope Her light, power blazing Brighter than a hundred million suns He could not unsee her Though time lapsed, while space expanded A ring formed, enriched by the elements Components of a life well-lived Beyond this is not X-ray vision To see inside the box, one must be diligent Embrace the waves of each passing region Believe the cat will be there next season As Spring will come ...

Like New Horizons We fly by dwarfs The small minded We cooper belts here Repair lost boys For the long trek A space crafted Full of instruments Applied physics We made it to the Sky Where, Olaf red Preserved and frozen Our birth, our death

Even on the best of days when no one else can tell the ache of eternal suffering sits dormant, waiting in it's cell when it comes, it often goes at times it's mine, at times it's yours but every time it needs my love and every time it needs a hug Even on the best of days when everything is fine flying high and laughing long absorbed by the sky finding joy in all the things reminders I'm alive, yet there it sits, silently a sentencing for life

my heart is heavy, but my spirit is light for my heart is full and I, a wright I silence the noise inside my head reflect on the images, across my eyelids know that this body is mine to give one at a time you spoke to me that was, after you all rushed in what could I do but bleed for you uneducated and not heaven sent that's when Kindness came to sit upon my sill smiled so shyly, ever so slyly I couldn't resist her will with each flutter and each flip I responded in jest much for the encouragement this was my dream, an' I a responsibility to realize it

It's always dark here The way I like it It's when you shine your brightest I dream of you knowingly Even traveling in light-years I may never reach you Before thine own energy runneth out Nevertheless I go willingly For what is a life without a dream Happiness without the pursuing Will you shine brighter I wonder Will it be a good match Blindly I will follow you Cherish and honor you Will you be a good man

There is nothing to lose, or win You are sitting in the heart of God The love here is infinite Let yourself relax and be in the moment Let time lapse, have fun with it Conversation is its own art When our two tongues Become too tied, to speak Let us breathe Love Our common language Left like a map among the stars We followed Because no one stopped us

Like a good jazz song We may not know every note in advance          But there is joy in the beat           Up and down            In and out             Through and through              A melody to create with you

one to breathe you in like winter, summer, and spring before the fall one to touch my lips against your skin one to nibble at your brow one to kiss your nose and whisper nothing one to find your tender, your gentile parts one to caress a work of art

There once was a boy dressed in black whose dimples gave in with each grin who grew to a man for whom I might stand an honorable and integral human

perhaps it is inevitable that as we are both opposite particles we must annihilate each other to some degree before we succumb to balance in our universe ever expanding, at different rates our thoughts produced are not the same and the friction drawing us in mass will only ever end poorly where no one can win a cold void vacuum of space desolate of life empty and finite unable to continue our exploring unanswered questions to our origins now and forever lost to time a reminder that this too was of our making a construct winding with tensions rising the tick and tocking having no ear to land upon be it deaf or that of hard hearing happening in waves a sound still reaching out radio signals sent, with hopes left never knowing if they were found thinking of us our fragility life being but a happenstance is quite frightening precious moments not wasted or treated carelessly but designed with purpose cared for tenderly hidden figures with which light wil...

Where has our logic gone Where does our good sense lie Where do we begin to notice No one wins when it's an eye for an eye Where do we go from here So many have been lost Our hearts broken open, hemorrhaging Paying the ultimate cost Borders undefined, boundaries crisscrossed Within, inherent lies Where is the truth we seek Clouded in corrupted minds Where do we come together Where are the silver lines A yellow brick road to follow No wizards, but dandy Lions Where has our good god gone Where do our shepherds hide Where have we preserved our peace For it to be multiplied Where are the rising stock/stalk Lost, among the flock Where are the heaven sent Where do the scriptures rest Describing the archetype Outlining our next steps Where is our reason to hope, in these darkest of times

To maintain public order and provide ongoing safety we need to rethink what it means to prevent criminal activities; we need to reevaluate the efforts we put into detecting and investigating certain criminal activities over other criminal activities, because the ways in which you're apprehending us are a real threat. regarding enforcement of the law or "having a zero tolerance on crime." I implore you, use compassion and responsiveness; our needs are going unmet, our human rights ignored. These expectations were preset, that "governments are instituted among men" to secure the rights of "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness."

First Divorce Two Year Old Ex was a Cop, but stole your best friend. This was not the end. Terrorized your new family Pulled over, harassed at every stop Grocery shopping was more like a weekly interrogation ending with a treat, "For being so quiet and staying so sweet. Apples and oranges are OK. No papayas from now on. He'll get his in good time. Now, let's just move on." And he did, didn't he. Flipped that car, high speeds. Like I am sure falling in love with that kind of man must be. It wasn't just him though I don't remember where y'all had to go, but it was just Kyle and me in that single-wide mobile-home. What were we doing that day? Before they showed up banging on every door and window. Walls, Tin, felt it, cave in; maybe a part of me is still there. Sirens on, lights flashing. Who were these men, in uniform, making demands, in aggressive stance. We had been play...
