Where Do the Children Play?

“The supposedly unreasonable effectiveness of mathematics is just a reflection of the fact that systems near equilibrium are well approximated with only first and second derivatives.”

The last passenger pigeon.

hide-&-seek rain & sunshine rouse
tea-desire here whose worry hews
to vans without scripture, horizon skull
for this word gig bills'-ease

say they want war & all that means
'midst teardown sweet of persimmons—
as if even the mansion's antic gilt
were built on tissue bones

gibbering clowns might cloy betimes
O to wake as the weird spell dims
these toys turn out to be crimson-handed
& dandle baked-in dooms

Slow Down and Enjoy.
