Child is Father

Child is Father

Colleen O'Brien

We are farther post-Christian and richer entropic, 

 make more of our movements and less of our masses. 

We matter as physics. Our matter's less ethics. 

 Without them we're moral as moons and we orbit 

no center. We make a mathematics 

 that roots in a stillness less stable than zero. 

We matter as ether, no-telos our telos, 

 and stake your ascendance with flags of our absence.
