Sonnet: General Relativity Is Special

by John Kendall Hawkins

.

The General returns like Godot lost

crossing streams of consciousness into green

screen space where, like a composite ghost

of near shadows, photons play with being.

How do we reach into this place of fires,

of forests comprised of cord wood piled high,

this vast wood of panpsychical desires

almost heard, the crackling liminal sky?

In the interstices of mind in mind

across the new wilderness of being,

the Venn Zen diagrams of humankind

cross paths into infinity, seeing.

Poe called our love a multiverse of dreams

where everything's exactly what it seems.
