Space pirate speed demons

sorenbarrett

Photons know no distance, they live in the second dimension
At the speed of light no resistance, space shrunk to infinity in contraction
In a photon world time has no vicinity, it lives in suspension
In race there is no go, it's already there, there's no past or future all drawn to present's affinity
To us the universe a vast deep sea, to photon pirates a double mirror's surface it be
Time and space travel instantly, stealing space and time, back and forward to infinity
No worm hole needed here, all time and space the same lack of dimension on the surface of a mirror

    You already there, as those photons are? I met myself coming back from town (did I?) - is that similar? lol.

    • sorenbarrett

      Yes Orchi if you met yourself coming back then you must have been there and back all at the same time. Thanks for the read and comment it is appreciated.

    • Salvia.S

      Wow! Your creativity in blending science, imagination and poetry is spot on. Loved it ❤️!

      • sorenbarrett

        Thanks for the read Salvia always was told that nothing can go faster than the speed of light but then read how Photons exist without space of time and are not encumbered by them existing in future past and present touching the most distant instantaneously not as we see it from a third dimension but from how they see it from two.

        • Salvia.S

          I completely agree. The photon's perspective is truly a mind-bending concept.

        • Accidental Poet

          Thought provoking write soren. 😉👍

          • sorenbarrett

            Thanks so much for the read and comment in quantum mechanics things can exceed the speed of time.

            This may sound odd but I think at the quantum level the universe performs Magic. Not just like magic.It is real Magic.Its God's way of making sure we never understand the jail we live in. This poem is very clever.Made me think

            • sorenbarrett

              Thank you David for the read and kind words of support. Science never ceases to amaze me.

              Science i am ignorant to, enjoyment i am not, I don't understand this write completely but i did enjoy reading it, very creative

              • sorenbarrett

                Thank you so much for the read and comment. We don't have to understand to appreciate beauty.

                  You are very welcome

                  Some thing in us, about us are like photons, where distance is no issue. Now that rings quite clear and true! 🙏🏻🕊

                  • sorenbarrett

                    Yes memory enables us to travel time and imagination vast distances instantly. Thanks so much for the read and comment Cryptic

                    • arqios

                      Indeed! You are welcome dear Soren 🙏🏻🕊

                    • Tristan Robert Lange

                      🤯 So, there's science fiction...which definitely is imaginative. This, rather, is simply imaginative science. It uses the imagination and science to reveal something profoundly deep and true. Well done! This gets a fave! 🌹👏

                      • sorenbarrett

                        Thanks Tristan for the read and comment. Yes you would think it sci-fi but as I was reading the other day I found that this is in fact the case at the quantum level the photon knows no time. It is only two dimensional and from its point of view there is no depth so it touches infinity in both directions and is in all places future, past and present are all one. Science stranger than fiction where travel to the infinity is immediate

                        • Tristan Robert Lange

                          Truth. So much stranger than fiction. As Jim Morrison once put it, "This is the strangest life I've ever known." That quote has always put a smile on my face. Here's to photons, my friend!

                          Nice write, very nice write.

                          Photons go through all life and the universe without us knowing soren, Good words.
