Here are some miniatures that I wrote at various points in the past.

My translation of Dao De Jing 1-8

the path that can be followed truly isn't
its end the nameless name, the stateless state
and all the myriad things that we point out
but shadows dancing to the light of fate

the O is for "observer," undisplaced
the flow forever chasing after flow
distinction is distraction and what waits
is total recall of the 1 we know

Physicists and Mathematicians

there was a mechanical dyne
which physicists modeled with sine
their math friends found out
and chuckled with doubt
when they saw that the fit was a line

Pure Oil (cf. Kipling, "Cold Iron")

water for the waiter
bicarb for the staff
acid for the hippie, coughing with his laugh
"good!" said the O.G.
talking down the hall
"but oil, pure oil? that's master of 'em all"

Cash Money (cf. previous)

iron for the workhorse
oil for the slick
blubber for the candle, burning by the wick
"yes!" says John Pierpont
stacking ten feet tall
"but money, cash money? true master of 'em all"
