That remains a mystery to me:

the nature of dark matter—MACHOs or Massive Compact Halo Objects, WIMPs orWeakly Interacting Massive Particles and neutrinos, those billion to one particles
for every proton and electron in the universe,

the nature of dark energy—cosmological constant, scalar fields energizing the accelerating
expansion of the universe

the reality of hyperspace in ten dimensions making possible time travel on the warping and rippling of space

the promise of superstrings which will unite stars and galaxies with the molecules of my own DNA

makes me hungry

for the big and small of it,
for the fast and slow of it
for the hot and cold of it;
for the ins and outs

of the whys and wherefores.
