I dreamed I was a butterfly...
"flitting around in the sky; then I awoke. Now I wonder: Am I a man who dreamt of being a butterfly, or am I a butterfly dreaming that I am a man?" Zhuangzi
Poetry or prose.
Strange Attractor
Two wings a'flutter
And then half a world away
Tornados kill us
A million wings now
Are recursively in play
Worlds connect this way
People I don't know
Flap their busy lives at me
Across my planet
Butterflies affect
Much more than breeze or waft
They come affecting me
Across the dateline
Sorties of variables
I am defenseless
Come what may today
Targeted me yesterday
Look! I've wings myself
What you did before
Provokes what I do today
In vicious circles
