What’s the Dark Matter Doing to Us in the Dark?

*

"Warping our pretties"
Yes. *

Really like "Will it

scare us shitless when we can finally
draw ourselves a likeness of it? Or

will it be the face of God, enraptured
by the music of Its own device?
".--Nice "*'

I find the whole idea of dark matter fascinating. And that most of what's out there is dark matter. It's a beautiful mystery that yes, may "scare us shitless when we finally draw ourselves a likeness of it." Thoughtful poem, Gary.

Damn, you've scared me shitless just making me wonder about it. Maybe I'll feel better if I sing..."Gasping at glimpses of gentle true spirit he runs,
Wishing he could fly..."

Nah, still scared. Thanks, Gary.

I'm pretty sure what we think we know is much less than what there is to know and of that much is unknowable.*

Appreciating the mysterious so well. *

Falling into the orifice of god, those words ran through my brain after I read this poem. Black holes are cool and creepy, as is this poem.

Great balance. I like it.

I like thinking about such things!*

Thanks to all who commented. I am grateful for your attention.

Are those the only two options? Yikes. This scares me in a provocative and masterful manner. Well done! *

I love pieces that ask questions, and leave the answers up to me. Sharp writing *

Thank you, Robert,
and thank you, Foster.
