BEYOND BELIEF

Emergence 
consists 

of things 
plus their appearance—
whereas

realness 
is what persists in things 

without such 
interference.

*

If you wish 
to discern 

between science 
and fiction,

picture photons, 
sparticles, 
negative ions 

all crossing the Rubicon 
of chaos 
and darkness 

and never once 
pinging GPS 
for directions. 

*

The Satan 
of Milton 

today would be 
sad

to see this ragged 
culture 

feign its expertise 
on God.
