Mad Scientist

Minds'
abstract concepts
are likened to circles
linked by straight lines.

The world outside a mind,
where information travels,
consists of lined squares.

Dwelling between the two,
in the sphere of semantics
he can be seen running.
Flurry.

Flowing conflagration,
surroundings leak
information
to be captured
in furious mumbles -
digits neurotically
joining dots in the air
by this swaggering lunatic.

In his abode
a cavernous
collection of relics
archaically dust-stamped
awaits.
Scores of dimmed adventures
into time and space.

He ventures for pen
and paper, mentally
scribbling
his next hypothesis -
a sure epic

beginning with riddle,
conjuring plots,
relating character
variables.
Formulating quasi-
cliché punch lines.
Drawing up the plans
for his next addition
to an unfinished
life.
