Personal Limits

A ball rolled in the street
The child ran to get it
Her daddy yelled and stopped her
And this was to his credit

The child was too short of course
To see oncoming traffic
The parent scolded carelessness
The outcome would be tragic

As he explained in detail
All the child heard was gibberish
She didn't have the intellect
But knew she didn't get her wish

How much are we like children
When we do not get our way
Our limited perspective
Makes us blame God in dismay

I don't pretend to know
Or fend inequities of life
But in the end I hope Love mends
The broken heart and strife

Super Natural

With supernatural powers 
The comic hero could fly 
Faster than the speed of sound
Master of the skies

He could hear clear people speak
Around the planets girth
And see better than any creature
Known to live on earth

So the comic book author got on the plane
Used his cellphone to make a hotel reservation
Then google-mapped it on his computer

Potentials

They say energy can't be destroyed
It simply changes form
It cannot be created
Eternal is its norm 

They say matter and energy 
Are interchangeable 
Essentially the same stuff 
Though force or particle

Like water, clouds, and ice
Are simply H2O
Just differing in structure
But still the same

Ergo

Manifest or latent 
Potentials do exist 
And cannot be extinguished
By change, but shall persist

Thus form is mere potential
Like geometric shape
With countless possibilities
In essence and innate

All of which is hidden 
As in a potter's clay
To shape and reshape endlessly
Divine designs array

Nonsense

What is nonexistence like?
I thought and thought
All through the night

I had no clue and gained no ground
Looking for corners in the round

Now I'm an expert
Thick and dense
With lots of great experienced
I'll share with you my own two cents
This nonexistent intelligence
So hearken ye, forsooth, and hence
The whole matter is but nonsense
