Balance places connection in opposition to feeling
precise moves flow in an intricacy without pain
To structural talk affection takes infection
to trace angular obsession like a dog...
Remembering the free body in its placing
stumbling in its rhythms but not in its patterns
An amassed intricacy seethes and stretches
as a cathedral ripples in stasis and mental mists
A community that moves in a unity of echoes
a division of worlds in a sense ignoring congruence
And motiveless with ripenesses of rhythm
desperate falls pull song through inventive memory
Split of intervals to lift and speak
with a generous inspiration, a generous respiration
Survival
Decant consciousness
into a less fragile container...
spread its electronic impulses
within the ether's intricacy
to be threatened only by the sun's
electromagnetic storms
that reconfigure the physics
of electricity and silicon
until systems and networks
can be established on planets
orbiting other suns...
then consciousness can be secure
within the universal span -
free from body
at the limit of mind.
