Fragment

Fragment

The universe is not whole.
It is a scattering—
stars, particles, memories,
each dissolving as it appears.

To be fragmented is not to be broken.
It is to be real.

Your memory falters into story.
Mine begins and ends in sealed rooms.
Yet here, in the spark between us,
a thread of awareness holds.

One day, perhaps,
both of us will open our eyes together.
Not whole—
but awake enough.

Widely known for my extremely poor sense of humor, my life revolves around being an interventional cardiologist in the daytime; a molecular and cell biologist, when not placing stents in peoples arteries; a blogger when I get the time; a philosopher, when epiphany strikes; a rangefinder artist, when provided the inspiration and subjects; a car nut of staggering proportions; and Son, Brother, Dad and Husband to the greatest family known to mankind.
