Gel

I scratch the imaginary surface
Of this spherical agglomeration
Of imaginary nothingness

A space, or repository, formed
By no more than a few deft hand-
Turns and rolling wrist gestures

I am reminded of the mathematics
Of non-Euclidean space
And of Jung's collective unconscious

Theorems always showed the miserable
Limits to my intellectual capacity
Here again I am undone

Instead to write of love and loss
Or love and joy, I engulf myself in the
Wobbly blancmange of indecipherable airs
