poem "cheque day"

 

Cheque Day

A poor man

in poor spirits

rises to a dollars' scent

rich again for this one day.

 

He can afford now

to have that temporary pretense

that surrounds his shortened reach

and play the part of providence.

 

Sinking high in his perch

his values now worth hearing

by beggars, users, pundits and fools

until again they detect the stench of poverty.

 

Knowing this he spends his self

an outpouring of each last wisdom

told tenfold ere he returns

to a poor man in poor spirits.

 

Precious words once backed

by cold, hard cash;

a mere penny for his thoughts

now eagerly accepted.

About This Site

This website is dedicated to the proposal that the metaphorical relationships drawn between any two disciplines are, in fact, universal, being isomorphic mathematical derivations of the Unified Field Theory. Further, that this symmetric aspect of metaphor is extrapolatable both linearly and laterally, thus may be harnessed to mathematically predict missing knowledge and invention in all other disciplines: an interdisciplinary Rosetta stone of universal scope.

"The metaphor reminds us that the universe is full of cousins." - J.D. Casnig
