Either a problem is insoluble,
indissoluble as ducks in water
that float and fly away, or like friendship
holding onto the past that slips away
energetically under the current,
rivers flow backwards to forwards in time
as the sludge of memory dredges muck.
Proceed with caution to a solution,
reality check at the door, ego
or self-serving nature, welcome spirit,
brothers and sisters all on the same page
letting the anger loose, get mad with pride,
engage with stupidity with reserve,
mention the error of our ways and lose.
Is it just me or are there strange forces
shimmering like gemstones on old armor?
Invent a new way to experiment,
needless bickering and elephant talk
solves nothing for a steam locomotive
on its way with a payload, the future
lightning fast as a bullet train, high-speed
undercurrents of electricity
bursting across empty stretches, regions
lost to urban sprawl and suburban dreams,
elegant as a geometric proof.
