Science

Of all the things science has given us,
Certainty isn’t one. Despite its rationality,
All it is is a guess at what life really is,
A question, a surmise, a deflection from
What actually matters. It hasn’t given us
A way to combat evil, nor to explain
The true meaning of time. A portal
Might open up next to us at any moment,
And everything science has ever said to
Us would be disproven. And perhaps
We’d be happy.
