Omer 25 - proof

Looking for the answers in

numbers and stars,

geometry and tea leaves,

prayers and functions.

Proof after proof written in search of proof

for the root of it all.

Chasing stability

creating instability,

rupture in cacophony of ill fitting fittings from

people, concepts, pursuits.

Latticing in bounds in pressure of breaking through

into algebraic pipe dreams

begetting internal pursuit fever dreams

reaching deeper, darker

into the morass of the collective unconscious.

Take the logarithmic function of acidic tongues

and add to matrices.

It’s all nonsense and significant in itself.

It all melts, congeals at the seams and celluloid slides

lit up by failures and hope.

Tracking moon phase, sun phase, blood phase;

in seconds, hours, centuries, innate passage of primordial memories

skulking, lurking, prodding at edges dark and soft.

But you must keep trying.

There is nothing;

when no effort is placed within, no effort is returned

— it goes dormant, cannot reach deep, it can’t move at all.

It slides apart as easily as it comes together

over us.
