The Magician vs. The Mathematician

The Magician glared down at the shallow water

The light of the Sun flickering against the cool blue

Some penetrating, some reflecting

All of them searching for Home

 

He thought of Man

 

Traveling so far, so fast

Towards the Mathematicians Inevitable Solution

Trajectory predetermined

The Observer laughs as they try to steer

 

A Perfect Evolution

 

Some accepted, some rejected

Yet all complete the journey,

Outside of time, outside of space

Inside of All, The Kingdom of ALL

 

At Home

 

The Magician saw particles of sand

Twisting, heaving, and some even sinking

Clawing at the confused currents

Swirling as if, for a time, they were one

 

And he thought of The Humans

 

Each of them individuals

Caught in a storm outside of their control

Forcing them together, pulling them apart

If they are Wise, they'll steer with their Hearts, as one

 

Towards the Solution
