Disturbance



Before the beginning of philosophy
lines absorbed disturbance through their length.

Along came a short line.

Last in line was disturbed:
'Does disturbance,
can mine,
make a line;
if I find
what has shortened,
can I lengthen mine? '

Be it the line we take, a line of words, words as a taut and stretched distance between 2 points, a third point is disturbance to 2 points. The potential of the 3rd point to be enacted or altered shows a force in that disturbance ipso facto and by the laws of thermal dynamic a disturbance in the force. A disturbance it is and a line of diminished length, but increased or concentrated magnitude.
