This is not mine: but what a composition! Couldn't deny such an eligible candidate a bit of space on my blog. :)
Dear friend, you're my final hope
Of finding out the true Straight Dope
For I have been reading of Schroedinger's cat
But none of my cats are at all like that.
This unusual animal (so it is said)
Is simultaneously live and dead!
What I don't understand is just why he
Can't be one or other, unquestionably.
My future now hangs in between eigenstates.
In one I'm enlightened, the other I ain't.
If you understand, Cecil, then show me the way
And rescue my psyche from quantum decay.
But if this queer thing has perplexed even you,
Then I will and won't see you in Schroedinger's zoo.

I don't know! The person who forwarded it to me doesn't know either. But this is definitely an area worth exploring: physics-inspired poetry! :)
