Science is basically an inoculation against charlatans. – Neil Degrasse Tyson
Science
uses what we know
to understand the unseen,
as in blood signifies
the covered wound
and tears imply
the soft core
of a hardened heart.
Breath is the soul’s body.
Silence betrays the secret.
The reality of time
is disproved by sleep,
while dreams inform reality.
Many things masquerade as love
but love is a prime
that has no substitute.

I love the progression of this poem. And I’m enjoying Degrasse Tyson’s “Cosmos” series on TV right now.

Thank you, Tamara. I’m enjoying the series as well and for some reason it has been a frequent creative inspiration for me lately.
