Considering the BIG questions!


Listening to The Radio



The physicist on the radio
Says that our universe
Is only one
Of an infinite number
Of universes.

Which means,
Inevitably,
There is
An infinite
Number of universes
Out there...

(Yes, infinity can
Encompass infinity.
But don't
Think about it
Too much
It drove Cantor
The guy who
First thought
About it mad.)

Yes inevitably
There is
An infinite
Number of universes
Out there
In which I am
The emperor
Of Brazil!

Which raises the question
Why the hell am I stuck
In this universe,
An almost unemployed
Truck driver,
Living north of the airport.

I wait patiently
For the radio host
To ask this question.
She does not
And the program ends
With me discontent
But no wiser.

Ware but an atom on a speck with in the universe. An expramant of evolution.Work in progress. Some find it easier to put it all down to a god thing , or some kind of daiatey. Not me , it's down to what it is at least to me.

Something about the arbitrary nature of life comes to mind, but physicists prefer chance and randomness to arbitrariness, not the same thing.
