PhD ending

Few questions

and the stomach in the rollercoaster

Will summarise years in the lab

And ideas coming unattended

In the night, on a hike, talking.

A chapter closes and

Yet many answers are just blank spaces.

The value for a society

Are condensed in words

For an elite.

  1. I love the lines – a chapter closes and/yet many answers are just blank spaces. That is interesting to me. Sometimes the answer is – no answer. Or openness. A conclusion is a beginning. Things go on. This is beautifully said in your poem, I think.
