13 Lines on Mathematical Modeling of Reality
In the developing neuro-network, Gaia, quantum determinism
unfolds into refracted realities, glimmering sparks, momentum
of free will a response to randomized chaos, clouded electron
thoughts orbiting ceaseless action until ultimate zero—
immeasurable as all theorems, improvable as all facts—
philosophically unwinds spiral staircases into nothingness
that cannot be known even as all information, fingertip ready,
dances within the folds of cortical cyberspace, electro-magnetically
stored, bought, sold, traded, and useless, at our beck and call,
freely willed static charges, plus or minus a bit of uncertainty,
all unknown and unverifiable, even in mathematical rhythms,
harmonies, waves, particles, entangled across probabilities within possibilities—
at this moment the improvising musician listens quietly for a note to play.
