Bend the reality again, and again

 

Dance, and it will rain,

Sing, and the stone will melt,

Call, and she'll return,

Bend the reality again,

And again.

Government asks proof

 

Every year,

The Government gives me a month

to prove that I am alive,

And, after I die,

A proof that I'm dead.

This is one time. however.

Infinity is God's Kingdom

 

This whole thing came out when I tried to find if odd numbers' infinity is greater than even numbers' infinity (without including zero in the comparison):

I thought infinity is infinity,

But Cantor said that there is more,

First we have aleph-null,

The smallest infinity that is there.

Then we have infinite infinity,

What he calls continuum,

He himself is wary however,

'Infinity is God's kingdom.'

Your Zugunruhe

 

You said to me about

Leaving your sacred place:

It's my zugunruhe*:

It's been a Jug,

since I've rested in this oasis,

I want out now.

It is my zugunruhe,

Like the restlessness,

Of the migratory birds,

Like the restlessness

Of my soul.

The season is ripe now.

*Zugunruhe: (German: zug = migration, unruhe = restlessness) is the innate, internal agitation that builds up in migratory birds (and even some insects, fish, and mammals) when their internal clocks sense it’s time to move.
