Einstein And Black Holes 05 Poem by Unnikrishnan Sivasankara Menon

(5) The Growing Numbers

Thus, whether Einstein
Liked it or not
Black holes do exist
All over the universe.

And there will be more,
As large massive stars die
And collapse under their own
Gravity, forming black holes.

Hypothetically, sun would turn into one
Had its mass been compressed
Into a radius of two miles,
And earth, to one-third of an inch.

But, this shall not happen
Because, mass of neither
Is adequate to exert gravity enough
To trigger such a collapse.
