so here I sit
the smallest working part
in the great machine
that is the universe
a watch
as some
would have you believe
without a watchmaker
my pal Plato
knew you could not boil water
on a fire that was cooler
than boiling point
but my mate Darwin
told me order could proceed
out of chaos
and his word was gospel
until my buddy Einstein
said that there had
always been order
so here I sit
not telling God what to do
not putting cats in boxes
blissfully unaware
of the Copenhagen interpretation
until I wear out one day
and am thrown
into the fire which is God
the wicked fear the flames
but the good know that
the same furnace
burns away the pig iron
and
brings
forth
steel
that star
[the one just in your peripheral vision]
might be me surfing on that fire
the cosmic wave function
observed by you as a mere spark
