Between dragonflies and the speed of light sits the tips of Tao
The headline reads that
spiders travel hundreds
of miles on electricity.
That’s it.
That’s what
we’re missing.
Between dragonflies
and the speed of light,
sit the tips of Tao.
Rockets, then A-bombs.
EVs, and then pulsars -
we’ll ride microwaves
to Saturn by lunchtime
if we can succumb to
our numb tendencies.
