...and the brave Physicists,
lovely Geeks and Philosophers
who are trying to get their arms around it
Is it possible that...
Someone keeps moving the goal posts?
Certainty seems
further and further away,
leaving our brains swinging
like a hungry squirrel on a bird feeder,
hoping to master the cosmos,
getting little shards and pieces,
never quite enough. But what's
not to admire? The math,
the science, the willpower,
the little sunflower seeds.
