A World of Small World's Elements ©2011GaryCGibson (poem)

Isotopes of ingenuity, Curies of rad
observation of change, constructions
in temporal moments add
Stendahl, Dostoyevsky and Tolstoy with Steinbeck's fields of wrath rifts
shaped with elements of hydrogen, helium and oxygen
forged through Higg's field
star formation novas
dust of being coalesced like rocky planetary ovas
where the kingdom of God is within you
within green forests flowering summers tilted toward starlight and song
thrushed through midnight and dawn

Elements of cells clumped governments
unable to tell right from wrong
where freedom and land are pawned
mortgages are collateralized debt obligations packed like fiber optics data around the world in markets gone bad

Elements building small worlds networks
cells to consume energy arise
complexity formed intaking power
molecular biology envisioning time
ticked off to sense the shadows of spirit
glistening in summer morning rain
aesthetic intuitions of beauty
purposefully adapted to plains
of time and being
in a created universe of universes
all things ordered in the will of God.
