It starts. Momentum builds
Slowly
Then faster,
It travels, at the whim of its grooves
And its path.
Acceleration
(not constant, it’s more like erratic)
There’s no understanding its
Galloping math.
Equations are subject
To irrational moments;
In the slop-driven swarming
Of driveling minds.
The stone keeps pursuing,
Resilient and senseless,
It chips and it cracks, and
Then onward it grinds.
The sensory images
Allblendtogether
And start not to matter;
The stone is worn smooth.
Finally, the stone falls off the face of the earth.
Nobody notices.
Bliss.
I like this. I feel it is a metaphor for life, its craziness and chaos bearing down upon the stone, wearing it down until its gone. Pessimistic, but i like it.

ReplyDelete"Acceleration

Is called jerk, and its the derivate of acceleration.
