Cosmic Truth

WOW  what great poem Tony

It's a broad topic, said the snail to the microcosm

Ha!! I love the inherent contradiction in this opening line ... utterly delicious!!! It sets the whole poem up and, frankly, you're never quite sure where you stand with these two 'characters' thereafter.

Like all of your work, this is a "think-piece" (perhaps a more accurate term would be "feel-piece"?) ...and the imagery and ideas stay with you long after reading.
The thing that's stuck in my mind at the moment is this: 

"The world began spinning
In greased grooves"...

These grooves of which you speak ... are they really the mere spinning of the world...the patterns of the stars...or the fractal on the snail's shell??? The chaotic beauty of that image will haunt my dreams tonight...just so you know!!

J ;)

I love the imagery...Like Cherie said...It's all in the perspective of how we see things...We all need each other...to be able to build the world...We're created differently with different skills...No one should look down on another for any reason...You can do this, I can do another thing (my interpretation)....Don't know if I'm right...LOVE and ROCKETS!!

Oh, so lovely... Great work Tony! I'm sure they'll do a good job :)
Kind regards,

Dario

Brilliant imagery Tony!!  I am pinning this!!  

My Dear Brother Poet Tony,

The Amoeba has such virtue

That the Snail left its' shell

It had said, "I'll only love you"

"If you'll love me just as well"

So they put their souls together

To plan the Earth's Humanity

The Amoeba took the nether

The Snail "Greased Grooves" to be

Peace and Love,

Larry xxx
