Sunday Poem: “Hawking”

 

Like Einstein before him

Newton before him

Galileo before him

Copernicus before him

da Vinci before him

Aristotle before him

he couldn’t find the answer to:

“Does this make me look fat?”

 

(Editor’s note: poet Shai Ben-Shalom, an Israeli-born biologist, examines current events in the Blacklock’s tradition each and every Sunday)
