Newton's pendulum
Einstein’s space-time, so long
our physics' answer to confusion,
is now, it seems, a doomed illusion,*
like heat, water, air, and more
that we thought fundamental before,
an output of some even greater basic
that unifies the deadly with the quick.
“Ah, hah!” you jeer. “Let’s see 'em make that stick!
The fabric of the universe
is not a medieval curse!
They'll just come up with something worse!"
Alas, I'd note (although it makes me sick),
overlapping waves of probability that bump
are what gave rise to Donald Trump.
