The creative pro-The creative pro-

No, not process;
Impetus, drive, thrust.
Parry, riposte, repeat.
Crescendo.
The end.
Oh, wasted time
And forced rhymes
And meter decays.  Staccato.  Staccato.

Staccato.
The sound of a beating
…soul?
Or feet
Running through alleys
Running through streets
Nothing gained, but nothing lost
And life is lived
And that is beautiful.
Thoughts on Tao I
1
To learn a little about Tao
Take what I write into your heart
And laugh

To learn much about Tao
Take what I don't write into your heart
And laugh some more

2
We speak of baffling things as if they were simple
And simplicity baffles us

If Tao were confusing
The West would know about it

3
Tao is everywhere, we do not limit it

A man may live his life as a fool and know not of Tao
But today learn of it
And tomorrow teach it

Wisdom is great where there is discipline
Often greater where there is none

4
I took two copies of the Tao Te Ching out from the library.

I examined the first book.  It was thin, a traditional translatio
PeacekeeperMega!
The prefix supplements our arsenal,
Daily decreasing the syllables to say
Homo has lost its sapience.

The muted screams -
Can you hear them too?
Can you hear the flashes on the horizon plead with God,
"How did it come to this?"

I hear them!
I hear them even now, and smell the fumes
Of steel and hope and my very heart
You demanded I burn.

My fellow Americans:
Inspiration you ask for, I give you revelation;
Mystery of all time - "what is death?"
Now I know...

Death is a suffix.

Goodnight.

An infinitely self-intersecting Riemann surface based on the Mandelbrot set? Sure, why not.

I think I'm going to get a print of this one.

This is a zoomed-in still from Mandelbrot Resequenced Tomograph.

Here is another version with inverted colours and finer lines.
