Rhymes

Harps a’ hummin’

Harps a’ hummin’ endlessly

With natural harmonics

RRRRRResonating frequencies

No cherubs to voice phonics

 

Background radiation pleased

To duet with the demonics…

Of fizzing vacuum energy’s

Super-position-sonics

 

In space, no one can hear you sing

The sound can’t leap the void

But matter dances to your tune

So, gravity waves are deployed

 

And you just try to stop them

Through the dark, as fast as light

They get everywhere, and everywhen

To shake all bodies with delight

 

So, songs from far away. Long gone!

All reach their destination

Exciting others from afar

To join the celebration

 

 

We’re classic fandangoin’

And no need for entanglein’

Still takes two, to be tangoin’

So please, no manhandlin’

 

 

Your atoms can’t help vibrating

To transmit, your life’s swan song

Unless the waves are inverted

So, all the sound is gone

 

But no one’s ever managed it

Such cosmic noise reduction

It would take an almighty force

To pull off such destruction

 

But what a fuckin production!

Expansion, beat by contraction

Big bangs, outdone by suction

Multiverse-icide by seduction!

Corruption!

Divine instruction!

 

Yoda Yoga

Gotta raise some kin

Gotta buy the farm

Gotta spread some love

Gotta do no harm

Gotta eat more fruit

Ride a bike, and run

Gotta smoke no more

Drum, and do less sums

Gotta learn some Yoda yoga

Cross some legs, and meditate

Just, don’t show brain, in a toga

Don’t calculate, just contemplate

Gotta broaden those horizons

And see, what’s still yet to come

Gotta force all work and study

Into play, until it’s fun

Until… you’re happy

And you know it

Flap your glands

No, clap your hands

Waive commands

And love your fans

Until you’re happy

You don’t even know it

So make a stand

No, flap ya glands

Give a damn

And change your plans

If life’s crappy, and you blow it

And you have a seed…. still sow it

But, if you’re happy just to throw it

Join our band

 

Absolute infinity

Play a game of nothings, with me

Double or quits, I’ll win, you’ll see

Nothing exists, you’ll surely learn

Best of three, there’s no rules, your turn

 

-Well, err, there’s only infor…

No, there’s only numbers

 

 

-If there’s only numbers, then

There’s only the primes

The others are just combinations

Of these fundamental units

On which we spend

Too much of our concentration

 

-There are no things, in the net Universe

I don’t actually think, therefore, I’m not

Well, ‘I know nowt, I know that’, for sure

So, there must be at least one thing

But perhaps, not a lot

 

-If there’s only two things

They are the Universe’s wave function

And my utility function

And simply nothing more

 

-Aha, quantum and consciousness

Or…

If there’s only three things

Rock, paper, scissors…

…Win, lose or draw

 

-If it’s three, then, zero, one and infinity

Nothing else exists

Just ‘fettle’ some ones, to get all the numbers

Cos the other two, are fixed

 

-If there’s four

You gotta adore

Sensation and sense

Knowledge and understanding

 

-Each creation, equals more

Than, the sum of its parts

The meaning of countless

Works of art, still outstanding

 

-Nah. if there’s only four

It’s space and time

Matter and energy

No need for more

 

-Nope, that’s reducible

Spacetime’s a single thing

And matter’s just frozen energy

So we’re back to just two, all in

 

-Oh, and no consciousness in there?

Physics, but no thoughts, to declare?

Nope, just disinformation, not a care

All the ideas, in the end, go nowhere

 

-Well, you got as far as four, or perhaps more

But hidden fails, nailed your argument’s coffin

No matter how high you fly, and you’ll go high

You’ll fall back to my side, with nothing
