golden opportunity –
wormhole to a smidgen of
the universe –
squandered
in too much big
hair, Kate Bush
and Saturday Night Fever,
and,
who cares to know it,
an absence of self-trust,
So,
mathematics – the Ark of the Covenant,
and I – just another stupid girl

1+1 = whatever you like bb. 😀 from one stupid girl to another, missed opportunities do come again, if you find the wormhole in time!! (as you can tell, a science fiction nerd am I!!) xPenx
Hello Pen – I like your positive answer to that equation 🙂 – a very smart and entertaining science fiction nerd you are 😉 Let me know if you find a wormhole…
Ditto that!
Hm – everybody should be so stupid. We all have our Achilles’ heels – whether an absence of self-trust or something else. I’ll be doing the math here for a while.
Hello Monica 😀 we all make our choices, don’t we? And live with the consequences. Thank you for these words 😀 I hope you are enjoying the Easter break.
Ah! But what girl, stupid or not, does not love that big hair? Love the metaphors & imagery here….. 😀
Hello, Colleen 😀 Yes, that big hair has certainly had its fans through the ages 😀 I was once stopped in the street by a stranger who asked if I had attended a certain educational institution because they thought they had recognised me by my hair?! (and they were right). Thanks for stopping by. I look forward to reading more of your poetry.
There are none wiser than those who realise how little they know. Great poem, opens the mind to all possibilities.
Thanks, Mark – so much of interest and no time for it all 🙂
We may be of the same generation …
I think if I remember correctly from a birthday post you published a while back that we are the same age, Cin
Great poem, its imagery.
Thanks, Meiro. Nice of you to stop by
Nicely done. Good message.
Thanks, Jamie
I love this. The idea of a wormhole. (And incidentally I got big hair too).
ha, ha – thanks, Kate – I used to have very big hair but it’s quite boringly tame these days 🙂
Haha – stupid you are definitely not bb – the key to fractals lies between 0 and 1, or so they say, but I like them for the beauty not the numbers. Remember when everyone used to perm their hair – haha – I did once and my hair is not straight to begin with 😉
An uberperm, then? ha ha, we thought we were the ‘height’ of fashion
uberperm yes, looking back at the photos is horrifying – haha.
