THEORY


Civilization swoons under the weight of a solid theory
Gravity warping space and time
Theories within the cornucopia of thinking
Ruminations of the curious mind.

A quantum shift in reality
The world,
rocked after the insurmountable is explained
Hypotheses and their metamorphosis:
Existence contained within the brain

T  hese
H elp
E  veryone
O bviate
R  eality’s
Y ardstick

Idea revolution, concept evolution
New thoughts percolating from the depth of consciousness
as if by natural selection, geothermal convection,
plate techtonic movement or visual misdirection
The universe: an optical illusion?

And we sometimes see what the heart wants us to see
To illuminate chaos; impossibilities
The gas cloud of confusion hanging over our heads
until Bose-Einstein condensation rains down
jewels of a theory.

T  ruth
H ypothesis
E  xtrapolation
O f the obvious
R  eduction
Y es! Eureka!

Every academic field flourishes from theories:
Music, education, math, physics, astronomy, and biology
Economics, game theory, money action and reaction
How about theology?
Big bang! BIG bang. Could it really be?

The strange attraction between matter and anti-matter
Long-term potentiation, LTP, in our brains to make us smarter
The electromagnetism of contemplation, speculation
And creation from ZERO

T  ested
H elped by
E  mpirical
O bservations
R evised and reliable
Y ahoo!

Theories, the ancient greeks first developed
The geeks, and uber-freaks enveloped
By the scientific method
We've yet to define romance by a theory,
Yet selfish genes, memes, and other biological themes,
Attempt
Love fully-expounded would be love rendered dreary
Some things are more exciting as a conundrum or mystery

Perhaps when a Theory of Everything is at our disposal
The pursuit of knowledge will inevitably be
UNNECESSARY:
A startling possibility
THEORY on it's knees
