Brownian Motion

Brownian Motion

A Poem by Alvin L. Kathembe
"

I've got a new dance for y'all

"

I dance better when I’m tipsy -

I’ve got the moves like jäger.

I’m more comfortable on crowded dance floors -

That way I can camo-hide my ineptitude

In a mass of bodies.

When the crowd melts away, I am exposed:

A mass of awkward shuffling,

All tics and twitches, in complete dissonance with the beat;

Each movement as uncoordinated, as random,

As quantum fluctuations.

 

Hands in the air,

Like you just don’t care!

Take a sip of your potion,

Do the Brownian Motion!
