An Ever Changing Tide



Stretching and pulling,
  the Universe goes on

Cosmology’s wonderment,
  each day a new dawn

The Spacetime Continuum,
  today’s Top 40 hit

Tomorrow inherent,
  unless we’ve been misled

The deeper the probing,
  the ‘Bigger the Bang’

What Einstein, Godel,
  and Penrose began

The good news for knowledge
  as we err and refute

Like a tide ever changing
  —to immerse in its truth
