'human spheres'


Spheres.
--------

Who was it who said, that Life was as much as the Universe revealing
Even more than he thought possible, and full of meaning?
Someone who suddenly realised, maybe,
That there more than Science and Logic could be
Or possibly one who finally saw that
The proceedings of Life were indeed not at
His sole discretion.
For having built a wall, just as the hermit
You find that it still does not really permit
The exclusion of another's influence...
Lives are infinite spheres that decrease in intensity toward thier extremity
Like the core of a comet, leaving history behind them, individuals,
Until they contact, or maybe overlap, as groups or pairs.
What is then the result, friction or fusion?
The answer is very unpredictable, I suggest;
Either innattention or uncertainty can be the outcome,
Failing the obviously impossible retrospective isolation.
But in human terms, the result may well become clear
Through constructive communication and understanding
Between two such spheres,
And between which, I now beleive
There can be no hermit's wall...
