The universe, the everything,
Down to the way these phrases sank
Together in previously
Nonexistent rearrangements—
What’s new? In an organism
That’s really an ecosystem
Of single-celled organisms
Cohabiting in one giant
Of multicellularity,
A little fizzing keeps zipping
Among trillions of synapses
And, would you believe it, creates
In itself, in its tiny buzz
Of busyness, a small model,
A minuscule effervescence,
That believes itself an account
That covers the whole of everything,
More or less. That’s what true faith is—
Not trust in the miraculous,
But the willingness to as-if
The whole as blips of awareness.
