poetry, physics, possibility

“Stéphane Mallarmé’s Poetry
(Listening To Flowers)”
by Fernand Khnopff

I dwell in Possibility —
A fairer House than prose —
More numerous of Windows —
Superior — for Doors —

Of Chambers as the Cedars —
Impregnable of eye —
And for an everlasting Roof
The Gambrels of the Sky —

Of Visitors — the fairest —
For Occupation — This —
The spreading wide my narrow Hands
To gather Paradise —

~ Emily Dickinson
(The Poems of Emily Dickinson, #466)

Poetry, physics — same thing!
~ The Doctor
(Doctor Who, Series 10 Episode 1)

    1. Thank you, Tiny! Tim says he doesn’t understand poetry and I don’t understand physics ~ opposite sides of the same coin points out the wise doctor. 🙂
