Poetry thrives in a shadowy, allusive world in which feelings that can be un-pinnable in precise language come into a reality all their own. It may seem to have little to do with the world of facts and experimentation that is science. If all that there is can be explained by what we see and/or what we can prove, what need is there for poetry?
POEM

Vacuum Fluctuations

It is a Mixture
That confront
Your eyes, in the World
Beneath the one
Your eyes see.
A single photon
Goes through two slits
Positioned close to each other
Making your Mind
Spin in sheer disbelief.
What you see
May not always be
What is the Case.
Zero is composed of -1 and +1
