Monday Poem
///
Humor and Light
Jim Culleny
Even in gloomy
shuttered rooms one beam
managing an invasion
through impossible slits
reaches to where
shadows rule
one joke, a laugh
one light remembrance
and dis-ease for an instant
disappears
Punch lines and photons
comedians and brilliant suns
take us as close to god
as anyone need be

It had never occurred to me before – that sub-atomic particles could be ' entangled ' with humour.
I am puzzled though by paragraph 4, line four.
I expect that you meant to say Diapers ?
That would make sense.
By the way, I am writing a piece entitled ' Levity, Brevity, Gluons ' may I send it to you ?

Eiron F and missvolare-
I gotta hire a proof reader –are you free (in both senses of the word)?
Eiron: Levity, Brevity and Gluons sounds interesting. Send it, please do ...as long as it's light and hilarious and short enough to fit on a sticky note.
