Two Curious Minds

TWO CURIOUS MINDS 1 TWO CURIOUS minds entwined with the mind of God Einstein and Bohr The debate was difficult and more tipsy from decades of argument their friendship soared 2 determinism an evil force if to be believed by? refutes all claims of an eternal spirit that decides external scapegoats lay blame says those without souls 3 and through the window of a prestigious institute a wildly white-haired man peered across the campus and noted a beautiful garden next door 4 it belonged to those who had lost their mind in ways similar to all those who -- like him tried. the lunatic asylum could be his home if not more 5 back to the blackboard with weapon in hand, the equation for his madness; unified field theory fleeing all sensible manner it hid as a wolf in his den 6 not a weak heart so his bold heart worked and labored shredding chalk and sweating drops of intuition variables came and left as Mistresses in his mind 7 the gravity of this situation was to marry such forces his ill-born child, not just his own-- cried in his arms papa Einstein fed his baby but would never put it to bed. :: ~ ::
