Complex Geometries

Relevance is a question that bubbles 
up now and again. In an elevator

packed with people, I sometimes wonder
if they would read me; if my particulars 

resonate enough for them to remember. 
The doors close and open. At a party, 

I linger near the table of cocktail 
shrimp and dip, refill my plate, listen 

to revealing conversations around me. 
I try to do what our hosts say as they prowl 

the room—Enjoy!  How to find space amid
spheres of ever-shifting fractals, and how I want

to believe no branch or starry bifurcation 
could ever be merely identical to the next.
