Colin Powell addresses the UN

it's powerpoint of course.

all power. no point.

microsoftware

before the macrohardware

all style

no substance

erect an argument on flawed foundations

holes the size

of bombcraters

a colon

pregnant pause before a war

lives reduced

not to dot points

but bullet points

Microworld

a visible universe of unseen blocks and bond

 desiccating clay tessellates to hexagons

quartz molecules hold hands. angled calcite perfection

Fibonacci in each pinecone, protea, sunflower

geometry of the seen

constructed from the lego

of the invisible
