Abstract The following pages feature an atypical flavor of creative writing that merges contemporary poetry with the lyrical influence of spoken word. Each poem can be rewarding to simply read, but the lyricism is such that most of the pieces would be equally rewarding to hear aloud. Some pieces are intended to be lyrically entertaining without a coherent story, in the tradition of Surrealism or Dada. Weaving together such varied themes as Greek mythology, Einstein, metaphysics, hip-hop, Freud, golden ratios, string theory, sexuality, and alchemy, the collection is intended to provide the reader with an experience that integrates – or juxtaposes – art and science.
