Why I Suck at Physics
Ruefully, I inhale lavender,
knowing it’s physically impossible
to inhabit her space simultaneously.
Still, I’d be most grateful
to rebreathe her air,
exchanging molecules
like the yin-yang symbols,
with a smearing of her bird-winged light
inhabiting my darkness,
and a drizzle of my unruly dusk
dwelling upon her rising mornings.
When I wanderlust,
it isn’t always about wandering,
not the journey nor the destination,
and that last part is a lavender-laced lie
as she is the journey’s end
I crave exploring most,
the waypoint where yearning removes its coat,
unpacks, and settles in as longing unfurls,
curling into her,
straining sinew
to rewrite our laws of physics.

He has another piece where he uses the word mitachondria. I didn’t anyone else on WordPress was nerdy enough to weave mitachondria into a poem!

I thought I would want to virtually punch him for letting me worry so much but honestly I was relieved I just wanted to hug him. We so overwhelmed him on Facebook with enthusiastic greetings that he may have gone back into hiding!
