I, as poet, crave clarity in definition and precision in the tools of my craft. The visual elements of poetics have always indicated images impossible to explore with current technological hardware.
Here I would like to introduce a new dimension of navigation. The root word of microscopic is "scop" meaning to see. Micro addresses things extremely small.
A favorite read of mine is Piers Anthony's Macroscope. The idea being all within visual range can be examined. The prefix macro- (rhymes with "hack hoe") is common to modern lexicons implying objects and events observable to the naked eye.
I wish to formalize a new definition / pronunciation of Macroscopic. This meaning infers objecst and events which are large beyond human senses ability to capture. This new prefix is Macro- (rhymes with "Take Toe") and deals with things too large to see.
So here are your variouscopic options: Microscopic (too small to see), macroscopic (soft a , within optical range), and Macroscopic (hard A, too large to see).
Knowing that there is a word for a concept or thing invisible to the naked eye but undeniably real, is a prosperity to my poets soul, and a luxury to my military mind.
Science and art are advanced by this new codification, obscure as it may be, of structural design at all levels of observation. The beauty of Great Creators handiwork can only be hinted at with our most powerful tools.
My responsibility as poet is to reveal the indivisible connection between humanity and the incomprehensible support systems embedded within us, and those within which we are embedded.
Swallowed by nature
Abandoned village returns
Elements to Earth
Beauty everywhere
Above and below poet
Rings of creation
Various optics
Reveal the tiniest hint
Visionary truth
Say it with me now
My crow, mack row, Make row...scope

Micro- (tiny), macro- (common), Macro-(giant), treat converging fields of study which I gigglingly poeticize. I may have made up the m-M differentiation, but I am a linguistic disestablishmentarian and reserve the licence to tread on traditional toes.
