CAUSAL CONTROVERSY  -- James Ph. Kotsybar

The cosmos, once conceived as a clockwork, 
we now believe was begun with a Bang 
that’s thought to have come from a quantum quirk 
of uncertainty from which matter sprang. 

The laws of physics, carefully described 
from observations of cause and effect,
 to which for generations we’ve subscribed, 
have come into question as incorrect. 

Determinism’s been made obsolete. 
Probability’s the new ruling force. 
Newton’s been shown to be incomplete, 
and we’re no longer sure who to endorse, 
since Einstein refused to get up and dance 
with random dervishes spinning with chance.
