Science & Poetry: Wave Theory

The tiny gravitational waves are a pulse,

A pulse that gives life to the universe.

So small that they go unnoticed,

Like stepping back from Earth and gaining perspective.

 

The world is smoother than an orange.

Our deep black ocean floor,

And Everest are just minuscule cuts and dents.

 

These waves like the bottom of our sea and our mountains,

Are so unfathomably small that we are blind to their existence.

But once on Earth the mountains are beacons reaching to the Heavens,

And the ocean is a bottomless pit.

Look closely and you will see,

The waves are here, just below the surface.
