Complexity within Elegance
Have you noticed?
When things get simpler
More beautiful, slick and handy
User friendly and multitasking
Inside they become much more complex
Many more intricate designs
More complex software and hardware
Reduced in size but increased in complexity.
Now look at you
Look at every living being
Mobile or stationary
The same rule also at play.
An amoeba, single cell, very simple inside
Enough tools to feed and divide
But not much else.
Compare that with flowers or
Us, the human beings
Where beauty is in so many varieties
In so many ways our brain works
To see, feel, kiss and make love
Write poetry or put probes on Mars.
Outer elegant simple design
Only betrays the millions of interactions
Taking place inside in seconds
To make us hit a mosquito
Even while we are sleeping.
