In an Instant Again
I was looking
at each ball
as they moved
individually.
It's amazing
that they only moved
back and forth,
and it's their
synchronizing
that gives
the appearance
of rotation.
Symmetry
is synchronized
asymmetry.
Thus twists,
rotation,
periodicity,
helixes,
and updates....
change.
A vortex
of cooled energy
is still a flame.

Like conflating mechanics with human intimacy. Compelling.

Exactly. All language is metaphor. Regardless of the slim nature of some metaphors, still....good reading. Thank you.

This is the central message....how can we feel centered and human in a world that seems opposed to it?
