RESILIENCE
YB
In between man's great mind and those
of his earth is a middle course,
A mid point hence the bridge be cast
from this side's halfway mooring mast.
Within men's minds' a mystery
of intersecting unplumbed force
that we may read the sun and moon
and those which conduct seasons' course,
the manners of the stars and worlds,
their births, and deaths, and their returns.
That bipeds we be or some such,
let intellect light up and burn.
obscure to seen, atom to star
a lavish flash, don’t your eyes blink.
what veiled romance keeps her pen filled
with mighty heaven's wondrous ink?
