Poetry – All is not what it seems

All is not what it seems

 

All may not be as it seems

As substance melts

Before the microscope,

As reality

Becomes subjective,

As mind impacts on matter.

For all of us,

Everything,

Might exist

In two places

At the same time

And misbehave

When watched.

 

Perhaps imagination

Is taking

A central role

In modelling

The world?

I am always amazed by the latest discoveries of science. They are much stranger than fiction, more extraordinary than any religion.

It seems that particles arrive before they leave,

That things can exist in two places at the same time

And energy behaves differently when watched.

 

Forget Schrodinger’s cat! It’s dead alive!

 

Perhaps they will find that we shape the universe with our imaginations?
