A binary concept

a mathematical equation to solve
a few variables and a few constants
a few knowns and a few unknowns

to know all the variables
to turn them into constants
a game is played

to remain an unknown
to be never known
time is invented
to keep ticking
metronome

tick and tock
on and off
zero and one
known and unknown

rules are observed
formulae are used
theories are proposed
histories are written

skill is gained
technique is learned
control is achieved

the bat swings
and the ball drifts
