"light is a partical and a wave
this is how to understand
how a thing can be two things at once
but a woman is also both a partial and a wave
she is a wave when you see her reach down to pull a shell from the sea
and you feel her beauty pass through you like a electrical current
she is a partial when her hair brushes your face
and her hand pushes into yours
and a child is also a partial and a wave
he is a wave when the sound of his pain shoots through you and twists you away from yourself
and he is a partial when the doctor hands you a baby
a small mirror
women, children and light can be two things at once
a partial
a wave
to ricochet off the hard surfaces and illuminate the calmness
which out them it would be far darker"
"uranium, neptunium, plutonium
they came from space,
found their way here by comet and meteorite
no child has ever wished this from a star,
Hiroshima, Nagasaki, Giannobile
problems with half life's 40,000 years long
half a life
time takes half of us away
and comes back later for the rest
we are children
and then we are parents
we are long division
slowly we decay into memory"
"in the end everything decays to lead
number 82 on the periodic table
all the brilliant things bond in the center of stars will have turned cold and grey
everything is moving in that direction
toward lead
impossible to stop"
