Poem
Early one morn, Alice spied a strange spaceship, Rocketing towards her, with a rabbit cracking a whip. In the blink of an eye, it landed beside her. Out popped the rabbit, yelling in a frenzied blur: "It's Time, It's Time, No Time to Waste;" "Space Time is Here! Let's bolt with haste." "We're off, to who knows when and where!" "Just jump into this wormhole, whirling there!" "It won't hurt a bit! We'll leave and be back," "Before we left! Come on, Let's not sidetrack!" The swirling colors looked so daring enticing, Alice plunged in saying, "Nothing else to do!" "What the Heck I'm Off"; diving into the black strap brew. Down, Down, Down she went through spirals of glass, Where seconds surged forward, and eons blurred past. She crashed on a time-warped Mars, that Elon nicked, There sat the Mad Hatter, a renowned time addict! “Welcome Alice! Right here, time is neither early nor fast, It's all relativity and strangeness, not future nor past." Here, every hour has an apparent duopoly, Where ticks and tocks play endless monopoly. She soon grew so tired of all this back and forth. Riding seesaw on steroids, to and fro, henceforth. So she said: "Hello and Goodbye", thrice and nice, And leaped back into the hole with three blind mice. Next she landed in a garden where a Cool Caterpillar, Lounged on a mushroom, puffing on his gluon hookah. “Which self speaks now?” the Caterpillar snapped, rudely. "The version you know — or the one yet to become, absolutely?” "I hardly know, sir", Alice replied feeling quite glum I've flipped so many states, I've done my quantum. Next she smashed into the Empress of Entropy, all wild-eyed. "It's off with your mass! The law's been denied." "Your head's energy is needed to reset the order!" To save us from the brink, and maximize disorder.” But Alice gulped her leptons and chugged her quarks, And plunged back through the hole with blaze of sparks. She met Schrödinger's Cat, entangled in such a state, Of endless confusion - being forever stuck at the gate, Pleading for someone to name which state it's in, With broken teeth glowing, defying its dark grin. The cat was clearly both dead and alive biding its time. Begging Alice to look in - to solve the crime. The Queen of Hearts stormed in, shouting: "Let's have Tea!" "You must meet Mock Turtle and Gryphon before you flee" But before Alice could dash, she froze - The trial starts! To convict the Knave of hearts who stole the Queen's tarts. The White Rabbit leaped up: "I have his Confession!" With that the King boomed, "The Knave's guilty as charged." Elated, she peered down and saw a button labeled "Switch Me!" knowing by now, the strangeness here, she pressed it with glee. Whoosh! She was back, in her garden, sipping tea with her cat. Thrilled to be home, safe and sound, lying out flat. Fighting the urge to dive down holes again, Or bite the mushrooms, black and feign, With caterpillars creeping and smoking all over And butterflies fluttering, sipping the clover.
