Elusive Quarry

By Future of Despond

Persistence in existence
to realize the void
is more like dreaming
without any flesh

more to say made without medium
a sort of walking, waking
standing wave
spilling parabolic numeracy
as philosophy

fractals running
in what could pass as veins
have neither real source
nor destination

the ceaseless propagations
describe themselves
in profluent jargon
generating layers of meaning
bubbles of false identity

creating a sort of turbulence
extending in the void
increasing complexity
through this interference

an abstract divided
by a dead delusion
correlates to tentacles
profusions of non-spatial amalgamations
scarcely anchored to reality

seemingly beyond all sight
these frail ghosts cast shadows
spectres of probability
the wave form of their identity

computing endless mistakes
to solve living permutations
a lack of familiarity in variables
compounds distinction
digression to a glass of absence

largely composed of equation
describing the shapes
of dark nothing
adrift without a notion

the presumption to deduct
is certainly suspect
the elderly men with moth nets
are decidedly set out
with the intention of dissection

analyzed in a jar
the chemical kitchen
in line for dissertation
conceptual taxidermy execution

the physicist prays to hope
reduction of his formulae
shall result with values equivalent
for either side of the twin mystery
so that he can pin the center
the tentacled void-creature
dead on a blackboard

    Sidetracked to simple scheme. One often hopes the resolution of irksome conundrums result in identical answers for either side of the equal sign, but forcing the wrong answers is not a scientific intent.
