Planck's Legacy

1.
without seat belts to hold you
on the roller-coaster ride
memories
neither here nor there
flare divisions like acrobats
diving into space
with more elegance than thought possible
September's swan lifts her long neck
and wings away
where is Heisenberg's principle when
you need it the most?
2.
there's a lotus growing in my cosmic soup,
my feet mud roots tying rocks to clouds
the equation of dark matter
my singular paradox.
3.
the blessing
every butterfly knows
breaks open this chrysalis,
freeing me from myself, I walk
through doors.
