generalized philosophy of science
I'll look forward to that fervor,
And I hope you'll feel it as well.
That enthralling rush of ardor
Which no amount of work may quell.
We're working on a deadline here, Though I'm sure you're aware. Let the pressure excite you, my dear, And may death you never despair.
Life is repulsive and glorious, And you won't have ecstasy forever. This isn't a fight in which you'll be victorious; Rather, it's more of a personal endeavor.
What do you want to be? What shall you do? I think we'll both agree That your happiness is long overdue.
Take a deep breath, And hit the ground running. You won't outwit death, But you can give it a run for its money.

I'm a very busy physics major who writes "poetry" sometimes. I'm really into dadaism and the artistic revolution of the 1960s, and, cringey though it may sound, I think there should be a revival of that movement, which may be why I stick around here sometimes. It may be worth mentioning that I'm an atheist; I appreciate your religious sentiment, but all you'll get back from me is humanly good will.
