I sometimes feel like a grumpy old man...

One is an art and poetry is a scienceSmile You would be hard put to polarise colour with a cone...polarising does not change wavelength, only orientation (if you are tv screen, twist is a better word. Do I get a bonus point?)
sofas and CD racks hover lonely atop impotent sunlight. Do not get impotent but it sounds good...are we physics here? If so, it sucks; or are we poetry, if so, it sucks. What you mean?
But they're just slow thinkers in this twilight: Who they? Do you know? Yes? Then tell me.
I videoed my flat screen, 7 to 9pm,
and discover it wobbling about, babbling to a vase. Hmm. Esoteric or "Oh,no! Not another drug delivery." Please say it is not...or say what you think you mean after a rest and a rub-down with a caffeine scrub. Again, I am questioning why this is poetry. It is becoming incoherent...like a seminar on quantum leaps on stimulated elliptical electron orbits breaking the coulomb barrier in lenr. What?
Outside, what light that lingers orbits street lamps:
orbs of unstable fissile material, Well, you can fool some of the people all of the time, I suppose. That's poetry I guess.
or colonies of impatient fireflies, instantly whizzing away
after I impact glass with my baseball bat.

I make nervous ellipses about this aging dimension. ageing
One mindless flick will zoom electricity in to kill the twilight:
a late 19th century murderer, flashing like a peacock,
threatening hostages with Maxwell's florescent hammer*. fluorescent

I lust for the time before Orsted, Maxwell and Orsted would be clued more convincingly if you had expounded on magnetic field theory. First finger rules OK?...but then Fleming would come into it all!
when lives broke sun-up/sun-down,
candles churned out intellectual endeavors,
and society didn't mainline alternating current.

Hi p and p,
Overall, I didn't get it...but that is not all down to you. I was already north to north after a few lines. You need more poetry. The physics is open to conjecture, as always; but poetry it ain't...and that is a fact.
I cannot kick the idea into some hyperbolic orbit because I want you to come back with this.
Best,
tectak
