If

If I shave with Occam’s razor I will only grow a gross beard; And all my scientific friends Will think that I am truly weird. If I want a small feline pet, Should I adopt Schrodinger’s cat? Will its fur be real, soft, and smooth; Or will I only think it so? If life, Darwin wrote, rose random, And that is how I came to be, If I sought to recreate me Would I find that I had no chance? If I find Yogi’s fork, in road, And take it to get dirty rice Would I find a place so busy Nobody goes there anymore? If I saw a Mobius strip At a past midnight burlesque show I’d see each curve, inside and out ‘Til my dazed mind went off the edge. If I race up Max Escher’s stairs, On his twisted angular trail, In search of Babel’s pinnacle, Will I ever reach his roof top? If I muse, did Thinker find love In the Venus de Milo’s arms Before Rodin cast his great mind Into a nude body of bronze?
