#atom
I searched upstairs and downstairs, mask of fright, repositioned machinery, turned on lights, called my doctor and the operator, tried passion and dispassion, meditation and my morning crap, sang out of tune, passed a school bus on the double yellow line. A clock, a calendar, a ruler, a minute and an inch. The kind of day I never have, opens with orisons, ends with an amen, ardor offsets humor. I cannot locate the source of the hum atoms alternating charges, e, i, sharing and unsharing electrons, π. I reck I hear *** my god.

Roar of Tinnitus
I believe in you with every my cell, With every atom of my body. If they don’t believe in you, I don’t care. I don’t care about anybody. I believe you with all my wounded heart, With every fiber of my soul. I can warm up only when I’m with you. Just let me be with you in whole. I believe in you! I believe you! You won’t forsake or betray. When you’re nearby, I believe in myself. I’ll pull through in my life anyway!

I believe in you
Don't look for the rainbow's end. Look for it's beginning. That is where the gold is.

Born with flesh and blood, but heart sold separately. Bird way up high, falling from the sky. The raining aftermath is the common denominator. When it shockwaves from ground zero, it leaves an atomic shadow—fatal impressions where a living, breathing thing once stood...

Unforgettable Fire
far off the jets are being gassed up preping for launch far off the infantry train in anticipation, for the battle sure to come far off the navy men scan the seas waiting for a blip on the radar far off a marine is receiving shock training and practicing what it is to be dead far off icbms with nuclear payloads are capped their ignition sources itching for flight far off but not so much

i have atom bomb dreams from the desert mushroom clouds billowing the shockwave blow past cacti and down dirt roads from the cockpit of a b-29 leveling the ground below already comprised of craters as we pummel the earth we become a might to match the gods

Going from a smoke bomb to a pipe bomb to a fire bomb call it vietnam. Take it to the car bomb to the time bomb to the flying bomb we call the atom bomb.

Together we are strong, 
Solid and uniform,  
But something now is wrong, The heat is turning on

. We no longer belong, 
 This close when it gets warm, So I shall say so long, 
 Be free in liquid form.

A collection of atoms falls upon water, grass and air. Interwoven by light and by sound. A woman gathers the atoms together and drinks them, eats them and inhales them into her lungs. She breathes out a seed, a small seed no bigger than the point of a pin. Using her hands she digs into the earth, and then plants the seed deep into the earth's crust, covering over it with the dug out soil. She snatches a sleeping soul out of heaven, his old memories fade away as the new ones stretch over him. The first new memory is of him shouldering his way out of the crust, breaking out to find the light. He is met with the kiss of sunlight, he cries out, and in return a breast cries milk for him, silencing his cries. The world is a blur to him, a blur of light and motion, but eventually it comes into focus, and for a first time he sees a face come through the light. It is a beautiful face that shines brighter than the light that surrounds it, a face he would come to call his mother.

Is there even a point? We're just an atom compared to a million worlds.. If I go.. Will anyone bother to care? My energy will still be there..

♡ little love notes to you (#180)
in the vast wasteland we seek shelter from the storm from radioactive shells we fled danger, danger, here they come we were alone but not lonely we were anxious yet filled with excitement our heart beats faster than the ticking of the geiger counter as we approach our sanctuary and there, away from the fallout we found solace under the neon stars as we run away we drank one last pint of our carbonated liquor and we stayed, waiting as society collapse as the world crumble we were calm, we were happy because we were lost but we are home

atomic runaways
The planet earth is maybe the material gold dust of all. But it’s null on what it bases purely standing on empty space! Indeed there is no matter at the base of the matter. The nano atoms adherent to natural scientia split and dance the bottomline is pure blank! Cosy slim and delicate atom continues to deep down. Stripping off to the quark zooming in yet far inside much more further down. Goodness knows how comfy slim will it be before it touches down on to the universe smallest layer. The matter, confined to natural codes, in search of the smallest building block turning to be a matter free off the matter.

The Art of a Scientific Atom
A song like King David sang and everyone heard It’s the sweet song sang in every mother tongue; A perfumed speech is heard sweeter than nectar wreaths round each patch of earth as part of a tongue in all different variations, directions it’s singing!    Mathematically comped that rhythmically span fashion in both or you choose science or arts. It’s a lyric sang with finest curvy swaying dance feel the quivers deep down into the atomic level still the various motions in various directions turn on,   nowhere near that look drawing a pause!

All Of Me
I ran to the edge of Heaven today Leaped from my bed and almost fell down a cliff In a balled fist I had a list Your name was at the top of it "Unfinished Business" God says I have to keep living until you agree to die together Isn't that why Marriage says Until Death do Us Part? Yet you keep parting ways with me in the living & No kidding besides my Fathers Death You are the only memory that chokes me up Like walking into a funeral late Everyone there has already grieved So you swallow, hard and quietly The tears don't roll down your face They bravely brace the fire escapes we call cheekbones They know That burning passion will create smoke in your eyes Smoke in the eyes always creates water Water helps things grow & your heart has been dry for far too long So today I took the last Birthday Card I ever sent you Folded the sides of it down Turned the corners of it upward Got a running start from Earth Launched it to the girl on the cliff in Heaven She keeps reaching for me Speaking to me I need her to see The Earth bound boy that makes Heaven worth the wait The clouds in his hair The wind in his laugh Cools me in summer Challenges me in winter & scares me during my storms He is all I've ever been I know him I owe him; a glimpse in the mirror A ring around a rosie A 1, 2 , 3 not it A Happily EVer After A you can do it Baby AN I forgive you Please forgive me For laughing my real laugh I know the snorting tickles you I know you hate to be tickled The plane never quite makes it to the cliff Although intrigued by my love She never quite gets the jist of it & this stupid list of Unfinished Business Keeps auto correcting in your name...

we can never be whole because we are empty spaces between the lines of the things we never did figure out if our fingertips connect after all, we're always one atom away and we know it

Atom
When ancient Greeks dwelt upon notions Of matter and its nature, formulating philosophies Of physics to grasp and get a glimpse at the Universe, A single common inspired idea, bound them all in reflection: ‘Nothing comes into existence from nothing’. There had to be eternal surviving basic elements unable To be created or destroyed, continuously mutating to underline Apparent change, while composing all that ever was, is And will be. Omnificent and omnipresent in a godly manner. Evolution laying the grounds for rare creatures To grow into great thinkers, ponder and observe, Empirically prove the facticity of these elements, Philosophical atoms, scientific elementary particles. Notes on the elegant musical score Orchestrating the Universe, its dance and its laws. Indivisible, matter reduced to its core Permeating space and everything within. This basic notion twirls in my head Pervading my being with the awareness of its substance: I am part of all that exists and with it, I share my essence. A consequent conscious feeling of unity With the Universe, all that exists and the humankind. A sense of inevitable peace, While accepting to be a part of it all. Harmonic realisation that combined we are Nothing more and nothing less Than the Universe becoming aware Of Itself.

Indivisible
So close yet so far, the magnetisation of atoms is wrenching me halfway across the world towards you. I can feel your air, inches from mine, yet time flinches away from me. I would wish for nothing more than to be caught in your embrace of fire - two years of wishing, and now as the days count down, I wonder if your breath, your voice, your nature... if it will be the way I always expected.

Distance
What if We were reincarnated? I was the plutonium bombs, I was everywhere to be found, Burned like stars in the northern sky; Yet my walls were too high And my insecurity was too deep, For I was so difficult to be created! And you, You were the uranium bombs, You were the rare atom, of one in a million. The one that I had been searching for, To create a massive fusion for us two. And together We could create the hydrogen bombs And explode the whole world With our love But yet, We were too toxic, Too destructive for each other, That we keep hurting our bodies; Roaming through the sky, Just to sacrifice ourselves in the land of earth, As to die and to be killed, As if we were never destined for each other. -a.d
