Is randomness real?
When fractals bloom in ferns,
And golden ratios spiral through galaxies?
They say "chaos rules nature"—
Lightning's jagged fingers,
Ocean's restless waves.
But step back.
Breathe.
Watch snowflakes crystallize,
Six-fold symmetry in ice.
See how planets dance
Their celestial waltz.
I've learned to read
The mathematics of storms,
The geometry of growth.
Each petal, each branch
Following ancient algorithms.
Yet true chaos exists
Beyond our patterns,
Like thoughts scattered in dreams,
Or quantum dice rolling
In probability clouds.
I stand at the edge
Where order meets entropy,
Where butterflies' wings
Birth hurricanes.
Here, in this liminal space,
Perfect disorder
Creates perfect beauty.
Take three steps back.
Inhale deeply.
Let your eyes unfocus
Until the cosmos reveals
Its hidden sheet music—
Notes of gravity,
Rhythms of light.
Now I see:
Chaos and order
Dance the same dance,
Two faces of truth
In nature's grand design.
