Have you heard the latest? Our
universe could be just a hologram!


Poem Artwork

Holograms R Us

A hologram is without substance or life
A mere image of some other thing
It cannot think can't even wink
Hasn't got the moxy to sing.

It's just a reflection a pretentious projection
Like a shadow that can't find its way
Just when you think it can think it can't
So it could lead you far astray.

Here's how to test this new theory
Of what's real and what clearly is not
Pick anyone (but not a friend)
And walk up and give him a shot.

Right in the kisser or right in the nose
And if he doesn't fall he's a fake
He can't hurt you can't even convert you
You could kick his butt in a lake.

Of course the law is not long on theories
And they don't like the scientific kind
They could put you in jail without any bail
And declare you're out of your mind.

I'm kidding of course you must go to the source
And find that holograph switch
Then turn it off don't even cough
To find out if life's really a bitch.

I like how you can make a poem out of a scientific presumption.

A lot of poets like to write about their dreams. I get my story ideas from them. Karl Pribram a professor I had at Stanford, had a theory that our brains formed information in holograms. That's why we can visualize so well in our dreams.

So, if our universe is a hologram and our bodies and brains are holograms, using Pribram's theory we could also suppose that our brains, or our souls, as some like to call them, are holograms within the hologram… Cool.

You need to go to Deep Space Nine,
in the world of Star Trek.
Once your there, be sure to visit,
One of Quark's holodecks.
