flambe of mandlebrot in aspic

dip my tongue in rum (ho har)
and touch the flame of the smallest taper
of K's¹ candelabra [¹knowledge]
IGNITES
setting it a fire
just to tell this once:

a butterfly in a flutter
creates a typhoon

what is your creation?
some day
some day the thing you do now will change your world
our world
ripples minutely yet exponentially
for even nothing
is something in chaos concomitantly

chaos
unhomogenized patterns undulating
existing recreating
for itself with itself
by itself in itself
lovely natural vicissitude
our home
systematic
chaos

i swallow my tongue
extinguish the burn
watch carefully in the mirror the whirl of smoke
what use to be words
rise and dance
from my ears [-like an old cartoon,eh?]
watch it twirl expand dissipate never fortelling the path
never retrace from beginning
hard as it tries or maybe not
never to go back
never again
we never
i never

and breathing out
not a fiery breathing dragon
just some hot air
for distant clouds on a hazy day [opalescense]
or fog that masks
the smoke and mirror
never told
only once

[by me at least]
(ho hum)
