The Calculus of a Multiverse

About this poem

The theoretical physicist, Albert Einstein, asserted that Space and Time are part of one continuum that he referred to as space-time. In modern day physics, space-time is considered as referring to any mathematical model which fuses a three- dimensional model of space with a one-dimensional model of time into a more explanatory singular four-dimensional model. Likewise, throughout the ages, philosophers and scientists have written, published treatises, letters, essays, plays, principles, and theories on Thought and Mind, all perplexed by which precedes the other, whether both are variations of each other; or whether one is indeed distinct from the other. In this poem, I offer a different and perhaps more radical conceptualization of the calculus of a multiverse, depicting it in my model as a four-tiered metaphysical phenomenon involving the complex interplay of thought, mind, space, and time. Thought and Mind, like Space and Time, in some intricate fashion not yet understood, seem to be, as phenomena, all interconnected; as one continuum still not recognized as a single, yet complex multifaceted autonomous unit, and therefore not defined as such in the world of theoretical physics. This poem contends that there is insufficiency of explanation of the Einstein space-time continuum, and proposes instead, a more elegant notion of the calculus of a four-fold model of an infinite multiverse continuum of space-thought-time-mind, all integral to our understanding of a multiverse conceptualization of existence and of reality. more »
