A Question

a question
the galaxies will spin in their tireless orbits
hurling stars, dust, and planets through a vacuum
chaotically disorganized and beautifully displayed
a glimpse to the infinite unknown

is every thought ever perceived merely insignificant?


At times I feel the need to step back and create something of my own. Something that reflects a piece of me.

Falling Liquid Water and a Machine

falling liquid water and a machine

harder and harder my legs push
water splashes around me
sweat pours down my face

the whir of my tires
the plink of drops
are the only sounds i hear

gone are the deadlines
beyind me are troubles
i see only dark, shining road

chase me, i will not be caught
only the rain rides with me


Something I wrote a while ago. It seems fitting to give it a home here as I look forward to training for racing once again.

little science girl

she wanders through life
asking question of everything
curiosity entices her mind
inquiry is her plaything

she is an eternal child
though her body may age
her delicate, strong hands are always at play
a whimsy of a lifetime is always maintained

"science is not a profession" she says
"it is a passion, a calling"
"i do science, because i can do no other"
do you find her beautiful?

Theoretics

dark energy

the universe is expanding
galaxies are flung apart
faster and faster
acceleration

mysterious separation
questionable acceleration
a heavenly dance gone mad
and i am to blame

try and find me
come and define me
the discovery is yours
if you ask the right questions

zip, zip, zoom
faster, faster
acceleration

Flash

twinkling

fire, heat, and hydrogen
universe lifeblood
scatter dust, blaze
explode and die

twinkle, twinkle
little star

Big Bang - And So It Begins

Quest

I fill my mind with
questions

How does everything
work?

Curiosity flows through my
being

Driven by a crazy
passion

Is the pursuit of knowledge
insanity?

I can do nothing else
but search...


The best adventures should be started with poetry. Join me on my adventure as I learn about scientific writing.
