The Only Things I Really Know


 The only things I really know
Are whispered from my deepest soul.
I seem to recollect the revealing view,
And the ages breathe out, “This is true.”
Love is blowing from every direction of space.
It comes like a horror, exposing its face,
Which shines out, like the flares of a hundred suns,
And leaves me x-rayed, and completely undone
In the humbled, broken, terror of good.
How large it is. How misunderstood!
Beyond the separation of some evil duality,
Rolled up in intimate, passionate unity,
It thrills me, pushes me, satisfies,
Then chuckles, as I shiver, and close my eyes.

  1. Quantum physics explains a lot about love
    Wave theory certainly applies
    As starbright breakers roll over us
    Souls swept up in a tidal rush
    The heat of our affection
    Obeys the law of thermal equilibrium
    And the principle of equipartition
    Cosmic inflation of feelings occur
    The big bang
    Leads the way
    To unification
    So when the quantum of my love collides with yours
    Meltdown
    Is inevitable
