TACHYON PSALM (for James Hallen)
Telestial makes day seem night –
Looks dark, in spite of starlit farm –
And notwithstanding spikes of light
Feels chill and far in stead of warm.
Mortality makes life seem short –
Infinity looks minuscule –
Falls off inversely to the square –
Significance feels minimal.
Yet super strings project – protect –
Neutrinos purify the air
And penetrate our crust of earth –
Providing bread for every fare.
