Half Live

© 2006 Hanspeter Kunz

when it’s dark enough you can see the stars – but oddly enough i can’t
this place must be dark with something more than night
my whiskers tell me there’s a wall around – and i feel a weird wave
where did all the light go? where’re those shiny photons? where am i, where am i?

ref:
i feel a strange duplication
i’m oscillating, and the univers subdivides

this must be a so-called black box – only seen from within
this place is uncertain with something less than chance
my whiskers tell me space itself is trembling – and time is falling to pieces
what is this? is the dark energy taking over? i cannot decide, i’m out of phase.

ref:
i feel a strange duplication
i’m oscillating, resonating, reverberating
and again – the mulitiverse furcates

you might think that I know too much science for a cat
at least I may know well more than you at that
cats should not draw their persuasions from equations
but then again, what do you know about radioactive cats?

i’m trapped, boxed projected – onto an orthogonal base
i’m faintly glimmering, shimmering – through unitary hilbert space
i’m just hoping that all this thinking will be of any use
so give me some clues on how to survive
i’m partly imaginary, I’m entangled
i’m half live...

half live – i’m in a superposition
entangled as i am – i’m in constant transition

i’m half live since i was put inside that box
with a poison capsule triggered by bizarre atomic clocks

i’m indeterminate, i subsist in unreality
but as long as I’m confined i enjoy – immortality

i’m wanted – dead and alive
i’m haunted – half live – half live
i’m wanted – dead and alive
i’m haunted – half live – half live – half live
