Quantum Poems — Two Times

Let me herald a marriage of two times

A binary that works at last

My thoughts will touch on scientific climes

One time moves slow the other fast

+

But first let me suggest a salient rule

All thought is one no matter what

Sole authorship betrays a fool

Our disciplines are in a parlous rut

+

Jean Pierre Garnier Malet perceives a truth

He tweaks quantum more than a bit

But gets no mention — sad and yet, forsooth

In Becker’s book there’s not one word of it

+

It could explain how particles can go

In no time past the speed of light

It touches upon things we seem to know

We can’t explain and yet they’re right

+

These little rhymes will make a little point

Truth bubbles up in times like these

Though cognition is mostly out of joint

Progress can happen as we please
