Machine's Poems

Here are my binary poems for Dan.

They were originally be part of the first thing I wrote since deciding I wanted to be a writer. I had no idea what I was doing, but these are a nice thing to get out of it. I suspect most writers' first attempts don't even yield this much.

Machine's Poems

English:

When atoms of our world do collide,
and pools of chemicals start to divide.
There is the secret answer you cannot find,
of what is love and energy combined.

English:

The lamb's lion you profess to know
held none of the qualities you will ever show.
Your emptiness is as bleak as text
with no passion from one word to the next.
