Parallels

sorry for my little rant below
thanks for sharing, dear Poet
(\'One slice
stands alone.\'
so wise, dear Poet
and that\'s why I put less emphasis on outcome
as a gage towards applicable value and worth
existence is an olympic event with only a few hundred medals
for the eight billion human participants...
I mean, we don\'t play the lottery because of those obscene ratios
so why do we judge each other for our failures?
when we\'re odds-on to fail, time n again?
life wouldn\'t be too bad, if we could just admit to ourselves
winning, in life
is managing to peek at yet another sunrise
everything else, is subject
to a callous fate of uncertainty
upon a flipped coin\'s
odds-on of unlikely)

Zeros And Ones
L. B. Mek said:
they can store more data on a single human cell
than half the world\' data centers combined,
and define that as progress?
lol
nature smiles, as we map out our inevitable demise
(great commentary, as thought-provoking as ever)
thank you, thoughtful poet

Fickle
L. B. Mek said:
(metaphysical topology
enshrined in Euclidean-like clarity
poetry, designed
to guide us on a path, where
our horizons incorporate
much wider scope for defining
what we glean
of life\'s meaningfully integrative
theorising, pursuits
to fathom fickle reality\'s, dimensional
anchors to existence\'s, chaotic tricks)
Brilliantly thought provoking
thank you! dear Poet

so true
and maybe if so many of us weren\'t so busy
tripping each other up, to get a flimsy foothold
on the rung above, one of us
may have reached further enough
to glimpse
at those metaphysical governing rules
in this our universal, universe
and only source to those meaningful answers in existence...
(I missed your dialectically questing verses dear Poet
thank you)

A waterfall of words and meaning, hidden rocks in the current create rhythm and meter. Rereading just to feel the rushing current.
