well in light of my new information- i have only to say this:
Fate into Phenomena
He tells me the world
is collapsing- or possibly expanding. Either way
i can still buy my coffee on the corner
every morning. It all ends up the same. Ignorance,
he says, is bliss, although he’d rather not be ignorant,
bliss or no bliss.
i’ve stopped listening. Bliss
is a funny word the way it rolls off my tongue
like kiss does- or kisses do. He is talking
about the universe again- instead of destiny
he imagines atoms forming again and again
to shape the same molecules. He turns fate
into phenomena in a way I wish
he wouldn’t, as if I’m watching a Monet
come to focus only to find
I dislike the detail.
