Keats' Conundrum

Only poetry can describe the real world. Everyday speech is powerless to portray. The imperceptible relations. Between. The breath and the lung. The blood and the heart. The eye and the light. The thought and the word. The action and the hand.


Metaphor explains the universe. Atoms dance to woodwind accompaniment. Humming connective tissue. Between. The beast and the birth. The bird and the flight. The key and the cell. The chilblain and the wind. The ache and the journey.
