Urn you insight


Urn your insight

Silkscreen this bare truth onto your t-shirt;
The world is a vast cosmic accident.
It is just the way it happens to be.
Nature is as it is, there reason ends.
Why do quantum particles come and go?
And particles and anti-particles
Combine and then destroy one another?
The luck is that particles have the edge.
Gods dice with Albert Einstein’s universe.
The mind hits a wall of absurdity.
And yet we feel awed wonder at it all.
We see beauty that is more than skin deep,
Marvel at the complexity and trawl
For the why of logical completeness,
Seek ultimate truth north of the North Pole;

Keat’s urn says beauty is truth, truth beauty.
