Music has a special taste
feelings lost in sound
Touching heard across the room
vision by the pound
References left unto themselves
choir boys in tune
Trading what they never had
tribute to the loon
One last chance to make the grade
masks come flying off
Darwin leaving Born in chains
climbing through the moss
Menageries have come and gone
kaleidoscopes diffused
Nomenclature chameleons
—confounded and bemused

Amazing job very nice
Thanks so much.
enjoyed how you dipped into so many cultures
with each brushstroke of your vivid poetry's bold notes
but I think the line
'Born in chains climbing though the moss'
will linger longest, for me..
as-ever, such an impressive write
thanks for sharing, dear Poet
Thanks, Physics has always intrigued me.
