by Coreen Schaefer
We are called to settle into chaos theory—to tolerate the forecast of uncertainty,
To recognize that the elegant systems of Her design account for the predictability
Of disorder; that the march of our life’s trajectory may, in fact, be ruined or
Rerouted at an arbitrary point. We are called to pivot. The pivots are neither
Fickle noise, nor error. We are non-linear and of infinite dimension. Any way
The loose-elbowed pendulum swings is divine; the butterfly, a hurricane.
