Is Anyone

Is anyone ever a total fraud

  or totally sincere?

 

Is anyone committed beyond mere space

  to a notion fond and dear?

 

Is anyone ever one hundred percent

  with subtraction the rule of the day?

 

Is anyone better than what they believe

  or worse than a mother can pray?

 

Is anyone ever truly in charge

  of that moment that slips through the hand?

 

Is anyone willing to dance beyond hope

  to a melody lost by the band?

 

Is anyone chosen from those who are not

  or entitled to what can’t be earned?

 

Is anyone welcomed straight into the light

 —on a path where all others have turned?

Dichotomy

Physics and Philosophy come together

 in what they are not

 

Cause and causation are different

 in the absolute thought

 

The blocks can be built and ordered

 over and over again

 

But what gives each block tenure and presence

 —science only rescinds
