Mercury’s Handmaid

In the second law of thermodynamics;

The poem as a made-thing is the

“Spontaneous emergence of self-organization”.

Besides this, in Science,

“The word magic means order”

So the symbol for Nothing

became shaped like the mouth in meditation,

in the midst of making more space

for Observation.

The numeral for the Universe,

One world, 1, as in Everything

Man-o-theistic made more calculating

layers encoded in an algorithm

to become binary bipeds seeking symbiosis,

or the meaning of Miracle. Walk the Talk.

Ecstasy is merely our abandonment

of a timeline.

Silence sought chaos,

letting letters separate from self in sound.

The tonality resonated

making all things

moving disappear

with (1) velocity (0)

without (0) reason (1).

We try to transcend our current state

if only for a half-life

chemical moment. Methodically mad.

there were bells to be rung,

the sentence was both a rule

and regret.
