SCHRöDINGER'S SOCKS & THE REVENGE OF THE CAT
Schrödinger's cat
failed to see just what
all the fuss was
about?
It was all such
a reductive absurdum.
The cat couldn't understand
collapsing wave functions
decoherence
entanglement or whether
reality was really
quantum
to save its life.
It was aware of
one thing & one thing
only
. . .the diabolic device. . .
Cat in a metal box
with a Geiger counter
with a radioactive substance
blah blah de ****** blah
an atom decaying or something or
other &
releasing a hammer to smash
a phial of hydrocyanic acid.
Wot!
"I do not like thee Dr. Fell!"
thought the cat.
It was a very literary cat.
So all this palaver
about a cat( me? how! )
being both dead or alive or
neither dead or alive or
. . .wot!
So this is to be my great
to-be-or-not-to-be!
Welllll excuse me!
Say...doesn't the cat have his say?
So, I( clever cat that I am)
merely claw my way to the top &
disengage the device
by taking out the hammer.
So no cat was harmed
in the making of this
thought experiment.
It almost drove Schrödinger
out of his tiny little mind!
And he( hee hee )
never did discover
what ever
happened to his socks.
I forever stealing
one sock from a pair
from the open
washing machine.
Leaving him to ponder
just where socks go?
The other side of the Universe?
Oh come on Erwin...it's not
rocket science!
Now, to get back to
describing the behaviour of
a quantum entity.
"Mmmmm......mmmmmm?"
"Naw....I still don't get it!"
"Say ya couldn't see yer way
to giving me a scratch...could ya?"
"Up a bit....upabit....yeah...yeah
. . .there...just...there!"

They had not seen each other in fifty years.
In between, a world war and a concentration camp.
Then my pop,
Erwin of the Homburg hat clan,
Went for the first time to the land of Israel,
From the safety of the United States.
A side trip, an unscheduled tour visit-stop,
A private memory to re-collect,
To a special hospital,
Where the survivors who did not really survive,
Live in tender care until there are no more.
A childhood friend to see, a dust to be disturbed.
In comes a man, now an American, a family man,
But with a European goatee, un-accented English,
Yet a boy, a young man from the Hamburg clan,
When last seen in the 1920's.
A voice calls out happy,
A miracle I call it.
Meine kleine Ervin!
My little Erwin!
What can I say other than
I weep as I write.

Under white bulbs
Dr. Black studies me through the glass.
I will be figure A on page three,
and how I purchase jazz CDs will be section II,
which will have footnotes
on 21st century Latinos in White suburbia,
the economic decisions of lost boys,
references to Dr. Earnst’s
Entitlements of the Capuchin,
and droll digressions on such and such and such—
dear Erwin musing on the thirteen times
we happened upon each other in life,
the most embarrassing being when I wore a pig mask
to what I thought was a masquerade
but which ended up being my own funeral.
One day we’ll vaguely recall the white sky on the morning
we met through an imaginary friend,
a girl who we forgot to name.
Does it matter, if it never really happened?
I just remember when you were a child
you looked through the glass for me,
and when I wasn’t there you waited through the night.

He stuffed
an imaginary cat
( along with
some other
imaginary stuff)
into an
imaginary box,
thought about it
and suddenly,
the seemingly
very small world
became vast with
potentialities.

Erwin, bitte, bitte!
I guess I should have told you first
when I found your missing diary.
So here I am, stuck in the kitty SuperMax.
Yes, I am Schroedinger's cat
trapped in a box with
food, water, and air--
and an infernal machine.
There's no way out--
no litter box either.
I assure you that I'm alive-- for now--
But I wonder about the world outside--
Does it persist, has it vanished--
or is it in a more indeterminate state?
If anyone is out there, please LET ME OUT!
Because life goes on— for a while,
How about some kitty litter, Bitte Schön?

~ for Erwin Schrödinger
Facts are light;
sometimes photons,
sometimes waves,
always dancing,
never for certain,
purely the creation
of the observer,
only the stories
we tell ourselves
about what is,
the dramas
we act out
on the stages
of imagination,
in the theaters
of our hearts.

DEFIANCE
By Erwin L. Rimban
Power hungry, you parade
Your deceptive stupidities in front
Of the apathetic world populace; Yet
A nucleus of enlightened humans are
Now awakening to the manipulations
You have showered on us for thousands
Upon thousands of years. Proceed then
With your plans within plans for utter
World ********** Intent on scavenging the remains
Of apathetic mortals whose daily toil can only be
Abject suffering, delusion and ignorance.
We measure the tides of suffering with the parameters
Of deceit you pile up on top of the avarice
That drives your dark selves and infamous cabals.
But never think that we shall surrender our souls
To your rapacious intent, for now
Is the time we rise and give answer
To millennia of darkness! And freedom beckons
At last to the Souls of Wisdom.

why even attack,
slyly creep under
or even parasitical nibble
at a figurine
that in 100 years will (
gain impetus akin
to an Alexander the Great... ?
a joke of a surname... )
when you have
all the grey
areas of an erwin lambert
to mind...
the joke that was ******
that became the mythological
romance akin to Attila...
the congested mouth of
human history,
lacerated, cancerous,
tooth-rot
and a tongue of gangrene,
nothing, but theatre,
surviving;
give it 100 years...
and no sooner the moths
that might agitate the flame...
but all they grey-mass-in-between...
ihre vater, die "wenigscherz"...
how these children
sum up the evil
in one but man...
peddlestooled into the lime
from the cameo...
dictator helpless before
dictatorial mass of bureucrats...
hier! hier ihre eisenvorhang!
break the rank
of the patron of bureucrats
(herr Kant)...
and place
the sztylet of Brutus,
with a semi-patricide scorn into...
a nail within
the hanging frame of
a dandy crux...
a feeling akin to:
castrating a pedegree Alsatian:
shining teeth...
pumped teeth...
impersonal the gnashing...
most of the time i imagine
myself reincarnated
in a theatre of a castrated
rottweiler...
making stretched-clown-masks
from strangers' skins
of childrens' faces...
just for kicks...
mind you...
apparently the N.S.A.
has all the personal data briefing
whether or not...
i'm jihadi material...
or just a fantasist /
fetishist...
good to know that even I,
do not have knowledge,
of a minority report;
must have whisked passed me
on a feline whim of
teasing a whisker before
a fetish for: leisuring a Mexican
in cleaning a dilemma's worth
of a paw;
prepare th mince...
an obese exhibit with
Alzheimer's...
during warfare,
war dogs & dogs require
the most contaminated meats,
to add to their expected
ferociousness...
ha ha...
the Nazis didn't insaminate
their subjects with
feline *****
why is Frankenstein
so pale...
and transgenderism, so, norm?

you know what?
that fox?
that fox that came
round my house,
and then decided:
**** i'm wild...
this feeding ********
is scaring the **** out
of me!
you know what?
i think...
i think i'll rename
him...
herr erwin rommel...
or rommel, für kurz...
ja?! klar?!
i said:
ja?! klar?!
herr romme; fuschs.
non deutsche,
nicht deutsche...
yes?
i would never
become one of those
happily remembered
family friendly
SS-mench;
sorry...
cynicism begot the way
to make blockage with
a bunch of *******
aging to be 70...
and then crying...
aged 50+, while comrade
Stalin died!
