Studio8 - Uniting the Arts

is there just one more poem in there
among the sticker bushes and weeds
one more spark in the night sky that is blackened,
one more story for our time here

I'd like to think so
that even a mind with graying gray matter
has one more thing to say
that strikes a chord pleasant to all the organs

one more vibration
of string cheese theories, reverberating tweaks
twerks....that require some ink and exposure....
yet some say it has all been said before

that all that is left to do is steal
and i suppose there is some truth to that
but maybe, just maybe, each tinkering
each manipulation of the angles

can create a square with real pizzazz
a rectangle so sublime it bends the mind
as to make all other rectangles obsolete
and tired.....a circle so sexy

we have to admit
the contrast is important....
the round is rounder....the geometry of language
has this subtle expression

this sleight of hand with real value
with worth that cannot be assayed
a new kink
a new kinky

In some ways it's all just beginning to be said, borrowing aside. I mean, we borrowed star dust, right? Who can say others way out in some other far place of the far universe didn't do the same? The universe is kind of a big place, and some kind of stealing seems inevitable at some point.

I'm quite sure there is no word that humanity uses, i.e. "stealing" throughout the Universe UNLESS there are other human-like lifeforms that indulge in theft of others.

Yes, small beans I tossed out here, but I was taken by your comment which actually led me to the BLACK HOLES and are they thieves that take planets and whatever debris in its path without any thought... just doing what it does and always has?? Or are black holes universal vacuum cleaners recycling that which they seem to consume only to remake more galaxies..? I reckon this to be a section of what you named, the geometry of language, which I find interesting.

enjoyed the responses gents
writers are historians at times
explorers other times, and
if we read a lot at some point
we can't remember if we have borrowed
something or invented it and in the end
I suppose if we did borrow it,
it's an ode to their creativity
