Brush With Infinity Moebius strip unsurpassed
that air without a rush
infinity, sought
in series, stars and inside
trinity of thought
thin theories, far and beside
vicinity is caught
and here is, czar of pride
endless strip encompassed
cat hair in this brush |

Additional Notes:
This is a nod to Jordan and to my cat Sam, whom I have been brushing outside the laws of physics lately.

Regis–This tribute piece is saturated with assorted rhymes: monosyllabic, disyllabic,
and trisyllabic; the verbiage is adroitly and intricately interwoven, which not only
create vivid imagery but produce an euphonious rhythmic ebb and flow.
From the catchy title all the way through its brevity, this sparsely punctuated poem
displays the great effort required to scribe such strophes. If this isn’t already a
fixed form, then it should be! Thanks for sharing this interesting array. TLW

Re: "Brush With Infinity"
This is a work in which the author has seemed to reach for expression beyond the material
world, into the metaphysical. Moreover, it is done in a remarkable facility of language.
Writer: "Moebius strip unsurpassed"
LJMc: The German mathematician, Mobius [1790 - 1868], would be honored in the poetic frame
his "strip" is given. In this the writer stretches our learning.
Writer: "czar of pride"
LJMc: A splendid word choice in what I under to be the cat. When it comes to pride,
they couldn't be better described. This is inspite of the constant hair flow.
The writer's style would best be read by the educated reader, or those enjoying the
challenge of analyzing literature. [I merrily labor in the latter group] Without an education
to match the writer's skill alalyzing can be laborious for those who do not necessiarly enjoy
it. Herein, lies a word of caution: A writer may miss some readers who do not care to take the
time to scrutinize work for love of the language used, its literaty wonder, etc. The choice in
this is, of course, the author's. And, must always be recognized as such.
The style leaves this reader in awe, Congratulations to the writer!
A fellow poet, Lennard McIntosh

Hi Reeg,
The Jordan you are referring in your additional notes is me?
If so, how I am flattered that somehow you were provoked by
my poetry containing Physics' concepts! And to your cat Sam?
Interesting! Brush With Infinity is very catchy in itself,
everyone should be 'brushing' towards the poem just by seeing the title!
I am fascinated with you trinity of thought thin theories!
I hope I can get into your theory and brush with infinity!
I love this for some reasons I felt inside! Smile!
