Physics

 

I'm still frustrated by
gravity—
things falling
down. 
But I'm OK with entropy
now. 
And I'm OK with the arrow
of time. 
If the arrow suddenly
switched—
and it all headed crunch-ward
(galaxies, the universe, etcetera) 
and the shattered glass really did
jump
back from the floor
up on the counter, 
whole, 
I'd be perplexed—liking
the one change, but maybe not
the other. 
You can't have
everything
your
way.
