Basic Units Of Science Comments

Matter as we see it have various physical laws governing them at the micro and macro levels. Moreover, we do not know whether we live in a Universe or multiverse. If in a multiverse, these multiverses may have different physical laws which may be in total variance to the one we have in this universe. The reality of Universe or an presumed multiverse is stranger that any magic or fiction and with the growing understanding of its sheer mysteries and magnitude we stand more and more bewildered. A wonderful poem.

I love physics and poetry. You, sir, have melded them into a wonderful synthesis. We mortals presume too much and as a result, our hubris mocks our attempts to measure that which we do not and may not ever fully understand. Our little corner of this universe is as a grain of sand and not representative of the multiverse or any 'constants' therein. Measurement intrinsically alters the measured and the measurer is blind. Thank you for this wonderful piece. It was very much enjoyed. A thousand daily joys (and peace.) : -)

Beautiful poem dealing with standards that have been established for mass, length, and time. The basic measuring objects need to be calibrated against the standards. Poem also states how variable are the standards themselves and how better standard measures are established with time. The poem is a great attempt to bring it to the attention of all, a unique way indeed. Thank you.
