The World's Address

I know you deceived me, couldn't sleep last night
Now my tear stains on the wall reflect an ugly sight
I can see your secrets
No need to confess
Everyone looks naked when you know the world's address
The world's address
A place that's worn
A sad pun that reflects a sadder mess
I'll repeat it for those who may not have already guessed
The world's address
Life's parade of fashion just leaves me depressed
Under every garment i can see the world's address
Call the men of science and let them hear this song
Tell them albert einstein and copernicus were wrong
The world's address
A place that's worn
A sad pun that reflects a sadder mess
I'll repeat it for those who may not have already guessed
The world's address
Call the men of science and let them hear this song

If Shaw and Einstein couldn't beat death, what chance have I got? Practically none.

Nobody in football should be called a genius. A genius is a guy like Norman Einstein.

For What Is

'A man should look for what is, and not for what he thinks should be.'
Albert Einstein (1879 - 1955)

young man
this is reality
this is
what is
what do you think
should it be?
when?
how and where?
young man
this is it
now dip your tongue
and tell me
how it tastes?
this reality
that lies within the reach
of your arms
than your dreams

The word 'genius' isn't applicable in football. A genius is a guy like Norman Einstein.

Einstein got most of the things right about black holes. I'm not an expert, I must admit.

Adage 5

'Joy in looking and comprehending is nature's most beautiful gift.'
Albert Einstein (1879-1955)

we are here
we do not worry
for everything is give
a tray of fruits
a bouquet of flowers
a cool river
a wide blue sea
white clear skies
sun

there is joy in merely looking
not even comprehending
what they are
their reasons
our reasons

we are the gifts

Every positive value has its price in negative terms... the genius of Einstein leads to Hiroshima.

Einstein before his was EINSTEIN

a found poem in
'The Life and Times of Einstein' by Ronald Clark: page 51

'In Berne,
Einstein was another...
unobtrusively trotting
from Gerectigkeit Square to
the patent office each morning,
usually lunching at his desk,
returning to his lodings
each evening with
the orthodoxy of the city clerk,
then setting himself down
in a quiet corner to
discover the laws of nature.'

If Mr. Einstein doesn't like the natural laws of the universe, let him go back to where he came from.

The only thing I want to say is, I know I'm not Einstein, but I'm not the queen of the imbeciles either.

Limit

Tempo!
Limit;
My brain,
Your brain,
Einstein's brain! !
In common,
But, to drive us apart with negative minds.

Tempo!
Limit;
My brain,
Your brain,
Einstein's brain! !
In common,
But to hold us together with positive works.

Toad, load, road, broad!
Ignominious,
Tent, intent;
test, attest;

As far as me knowing if Frank was a genius - in those days, I thought Einstein was the only genius around.

Skeleton Key

The skeleton key
Alive in me,
Always looking for more
Unlocks the souls door,
Into where thoughts are hid
Just inside my lid,
And where dreams start
At the center of my heart -
Things within, without
That I cannot talk about,
These things within, I want to give
And without, I cannot live,
This thin skeletal key
Goes about, mysteriously unlocking... all of me -

' Common to both (art and science) is the devotion to something beyond
the personal, removed from the arbitrary. ' - Albert Einstein.

Einstein explained his theory to me every day, and on my arrival I was fully convinced that he understood it.

Einstein’s Future Contemplations

Einstein never wasted research time
contemplating civilization’s future
he said the future came soon enough.

Relativity Theory

Wife told her husband that their child died.

‘Why? ’, he asked. ‘It drank milk and succumbed.’
‘What is milk? ’ ‘It is white colour water.’
‘What’s white? ’ ‘It is like a crane skin.’
‘What is crane? ’ ‘A bird with a crooked neck.’

‘What is crooked? ’ was his next query to which,
Fed up, she showed her hand with the fist bent,
For him to feel the size by touch. He did
And beat her saying, ‘How big the milk is to the little mouth! ’

[Based on Albert Einstein’s relative theory.]
