mandelbrot

set the universe in
six dimensions of curl and un-
curl
god is
an architect and the blue
print of the big
Bang
is it sound song or
just a cosmic
wrap

I like it! It's economic, but it evokes many other thoughts. Thanks!

This is great!

Such an apt form for a poem about mathematics and unpoderable questions about the universe - you can't restrict such things with punctuation :D

I like the way you've laid out the lines apart from the last few. I would have preferred:

is it sound
song
or just
cosmic wrap

But that is personal opinion - because having sound next to song makes it need a comma whereas seperating them negates the need. The last bit, I just think flows better without the 'a' as sound and song had no 'a' either!

I like the pondering of the nature of the universe in this... wow, that's says a lot for a subject of a poem :) Trying to figure out how it is all pieced together is one of those things I think we all consider at one point or another, and perhaps this mandelbrot set is a key of insight into it all. Either way, this is an intriguing piece that leaves the reader with a lot to consider.

happy writings.

Interesting. Haven't heard anyone refer to the "big bang" in years, but I don't get out much. LOL. Nice work. j

Hello Suzanne,
That last line really did it for me. I'm a sucker for a pun. Ditto Valerie on the big bang. Do capitals count as punctuation, though? Re: 'god is
an architect' - I'd've scratched 'is an' in favour of 'the'. But that's just me.
Enjoyed this - thanks for the read. XX
