If I may Say So



Out there in the everywhere
On our rotating dotty ball
Looking out for finest structures
To find the answers to it all

Checking out the alpha constant
And the strength of interaction
To shrink or stretch the universal glue
Rejecting any error’s fraction

With all our standard models flawed
Variations on the wing
Leaving prayers on heavens stairs
Discover clues to everything

So, one day in the not far off
We’ll have the lowdown on the lot
A theory of entirety
And the answer to our plot

The whole shebang on string will hang
A ball of wax intact
Our universe at last well known
Where the ultimate is fact

Based on Marcus Chown article
'The NumberThat Holds The Universe Together Is Changing'
