Poetry thrives in a shadowy, allusive world in which feelings that can be un-pinnable in precise language come into a reality all their own. It may seem to have little to do with the world of facts and experimentation that is science. If all that there is can be explained by what we see and/or what we can prove, what need is there for poetry?
POEM

Vanishing Dot

Wherever  you are
Vanishes
Bursting into an exploding space :
A Big Bang arises ;
All that was there
Is still there.
Nothing is lost
Or gained. As it is
The equation remains balanced.
Thoughts that got me here, to this point
Their nature, a complete unknown ;
They came out through Words :
They are ripples in some hidden Medium
