Autumn, and Chemical Excitation

by Thisica


Autumn:

The physics of favourable harvests
Lies itself in an gyroscopic tilt
(And surface heating to boot)
We barely notice;
Dreaming forever to escape the cyclical dizziness by
Tending the falling rain of leaves
Sweeping up their excited turbulence
While noticing spectra of visible light
Entering eyes without a trace

Embracing
This sound, the vibration of mere air
Churning itself in a low-humming harmonic
To which trained minds can see;
Plucking undulations out of faceless data
Despite many rubbish ideas in our heads.

There is hope just yet,
Some days away until this House
Embrace
This passage of time.


Chemical excitation:

A river of life
Runs through the psyche:
Tip
Tap
Whoosh
Clink
Click!

The world whirls around the head
As the operatic chemical play
Dances within.

Exchanging electrons like a circular waltz
Photons darting from one molecule to another
Communicating all day long...

And humming during the night.
