New Science

by Nick Herbert

New science is
Science without borders;
Every man and every woman
At the heart of the mystery.

Every citizen gets a piece of plutonium
Every citizen gets a hit of LSD
Every citizen gets a (big) piece of prima materia
Every citizen gets a chunk of the philosopher's stone.

Open your hearts
My lovely colleagues
Nothing essential
Is hidden from you

Amateurs again
All of us
Going over old ground
With new purpose.

Avert your eyes;
It awaits your touch;
Do what thou wilt.
Every man and every woman

As a star.
