A jar of toenail clippings

Sits on the mantle

And the made up math

Is all over the wall.

Scattered papers & notebooks

Show the theory as it evolves,

Proving that cats love string.

 

As the graviton spins,

The twisted fiber gathers

Electromagnetic charges

And sticks to the fur of the

Unsuspecting feline

With great ease,

Giving the cat the illusion

That the string is actually alive

And is following its every move

 

The gravitational force

Allows the animal to

Fling itself gleefully

Onto the floor kicking wildly

And sending quantum energy

Into ten space-time dimensions.
