Hi. I realized with great humility some years ago that the religious/mythological sensibility and modern imagination must confront, internalize, and come to terms with two SHOCKING scientific theories in all their implications, those two being the theory of evolution/natural selection and quantum theory/quantum mechanics. They are absolute game-changers in this way.
Sorry for my babble there. Your poem just brought back to the foreground of my mind these themes which are stuck to my brain like barnacles.
There were a few lines that I really liked, almost in and of themselves:
come early to our little dance
A single vibration in a chime
I do think...
Man, would that really suck!
...could be done better by you.
Anyway...just my meager dos centavos.

You can't hate me more than I hate myself. I win.

Of a quivering vibrato's bittersweet sting."
