Quantum

from atop Half Dome

look far below

high aloft

i see

specks of trees

smaller still

moving particles

humans

with capillaries

pressurized blood

and brain

thoughts contained

therein

like lowly ants

possessing hearts

nerves and brain

infinitely

invisible

water bear

Tardigrada

microscopic

lives

mites on human

eyelash

live

mammoth

blue whale

100 foot length

200 tons weight

alive

virus

lives too

tiny robotic hexagonal

geometry

with landing pads

living things

many fit in one

bacterium

what are their thoughts?

giant star

beyond immensity

words cannot grasp

compare our star

Helios

with VY Canis Majoris

our sun's relative size

is the dot of the i here

Majoris': 3 inches diameter

Earth: invisible to our

naked eye

What size

are our thoughts?
