Joy in Sameness, Difference, Acetyline Smokelessness
Modern poetry modern verse contemporary poetry contemporary verse modern poem contemporary poem
The poetries of life, the poetries
In life (if such things do exist) remain
Forever, even, much the same. Degrees
Of differences (if such exist) attain
A parity sublime for saints who see
Their dual, single truth as doubled things,
Or, rather, single objectivity
As mystic two. This paradox waves wings
The way the cherubim above the ark
Could not, conflating mysteries and fact
That only seers grasp at first. These arc
Realities insist that they attract.
Results are visions, Einstein breakthroughs, claims
