a wee poem about perceptions

Post by saw »

superstring theory
ten dimensions,
beyond x, y and z
the mind bends a little
the death of empathy is the birth of barbarism

mass and energy
one and the same
yin and yang to... what?
...
a bit of light
racing through space at c
exists in all possible states
until we look... then...
it picks one... how?
...
the faster we go
the slower our clocks tick... why?
...

sayeth Einstein...
"Oh yes He does,"
sayeth Hawking,
"And sometimes He throws them
where we can't see them!"

Love this!
reason is over rated, as is logic and common sense-i much prefer the passions of a crazy old woman, cats and dogs and jungle foliage- tropic rain-and a defined sense of who brings the stars up at night and the sun up in the morning---

This poem comes with strings attached. I got tied up in it.
