Slashing swiftly
Into view
Slipping slowly
From false to true.
Swinging silent
Out of view
A stellar shyness
Without a clue.

Travel within
The confines
Of doubt
Explore facts as feelings
From the inside
Out.

Pilots
We are
Racing fast and far
To the drumbeat of time
We're intended to find
The power
To reach
Another star.

When particles attract
Gravity exists
When particles repel
Gravity disappears
When gravity is neutralized
Time and space
Co-exist.

What is the purpose
Of linear time
When beauty is removed
From it’s original rhyme.

balance maintained
is the negative of equal

Elements of
A foreign land
Encrypt the passage of time
Within the movements
Of sand.
Intelligence rains
By its command
Enriched by a meaningful warning
In a structured moment without
Times demands.

A dragon's foul breath
Tumbling straight down your back
A ghostly reminder
Of how quickly fate
Can attack.
A dragon's foul stench
Trying hard to adapt
To a shifty proclamation
That turns your lies
Into fact.

do you see
blurred straight lines
do you wonder
what's there to find?
do you wish
that you will see
something astounding
that knows what's to be?

single Janus
in space amassed
by a timeless present
that's slowly fast.
stately Janus
in space that's cast
by the waste of a myth
on our heavenly past.

Telling yourself
What your supposed not to be
Is a trick of pure reason
Trying to set itself free.
Nature's operating system
As a blank definition of me
Is the knowledge we've always sought
From where it was - to where we see.
Fractals >>>

Interplay equals
Incredibly formed
Enlighten their masters
By just being when born.
Interplay arcnights
Invariably sworn
To protect all their secrets
In braving forever its storm.

A classical mechanic
Can assume a degree
Of time flowing currents
In a Galilean transformy.
An absolute mechanic
Can absolve themselves you see
As a same as state for all
In a crooked classic inertial tree.

Angstroms respectively run
into a sun
an old ending now done
like a loner
with the calmness
of one.

Weeping whispers
Strangely mean
Saintly secrets
That never will be seen.
Weeping wicked
Suffering dreams
Sickly stars
To old to have been.

Dim object separation
With detection techniques
Makes us wiser by virtue
Of our engineering feats.

Crossing quickly
As a gradient mean.
Super something
Gravitationally seen
Crouching crippled
In a timeless dream.

From heavens dark prison
Elicits a grievance
From a Devil's blind vision.

What's never right
Hark
