Friday Poetry Prompt
The Theory of Everything
the poem you will eventually find below is quite harmonic possibly down to each Planck-length theorized piece of elemental string
Hello Dear Friends,
It’s 2 am Monday, which I for one consider Sunday night, and I find myself writing to you from a spacious hotel room because I decided that disliking each of the 7 mattresses and various couches in my otherwise perfect cottage on the now sufficiently iced-over pond that dudes were out erecting the ice-fishing shelter and a young girl was doing her best 13-year-old Natalie Portman impression on skates in the middle of the scene (if you have not seen the movie, it’s called Beautiful Girls and it’s wonderful), could be contributing to my insomnia. So, I plan on staying here tonight and tomorrow night — so far tonight I slept from about 9 pm -1 am.
So, I have been itching to respond to Friday’s poetry prompt. My conscious has some notions of what it hopes to achieve and is praying that my subconscious has been formulating a stellar response, and I certainly had no idea it was going to take the form of a conversational letter, with I expect some interwoven poetry. One matter I have been ruminating on and off since receiving the assignment is just what makes poetry poetry and not prose. I partially answered that earlier today,
and wonder if more articulation will follow or if that is not part of this letter’s path.
Friday’s firey crescent moon certainly is saw it rising through the tree line a sight was never before seen so divine the burning orange crescent supporting the rest of the low-in-horizon large disc ah I said to myself, there’s your 4-elemental poem the moon formed when a proto-planet the size of Mars crashed head-on with that version of Earth thus Earth and Moon are both Earth, and we see it and its craters that house frozen water in the air lit from the fire of the sun
So, I could stop now, but I hope there is more in store
so much 3D is unwittingly purloined from the 4D and most humans deny its existence as “Not Science;”
Earth, Water, Air and Fire
has me wondering
Gravity, Weak, Strong and Electromagnetic
Could they be representative of each other?
It is said that earth represents animal instincts/grounding/foundation — sounds like gravity to me
It is said that water represents emotion/intuition/going with the flow — that’s close enough to electromagnetic energy flow for me
It is said that air represents connection to life force — it is said that the Weak interactive force initiates the nuclear fusion reaction that fuels the Sun — there would be no life-force here on earth but for the sun’s energy exciting the electrons of the earth which in turn radiantly warms the air, and at the same time the suns rays through the air are responsible for photosynthesis and therefore the oxygen, the air we breathe…
Lastly, it is said fire represents willpower/inner strength/transformation through action — the Strong force holds together the atomic nucleus and underlies interactions between all particles —
Fire is also said to destroy so that it can create
Those dots connect in my mind, how about in yours? What do you think R. Rangan PhD and ScienceDuuude?
Until we meet again dear friends,
with Love
