when the paradox turns into paranoia...
---------------------------------------
I now write through the fractals of my
empirical universe that draws its inspiration
from the confusion of a poetic architectony...
Is the cat in the box still dead ?
Or is it already alive ?
Who knows ? just an illusory consciousness...
To play with ambiguities is to challenge the cosmic unity !
The gods do not like to be disturbed in their uncertainties...
Beyond appareances lies an intelligence
devoid of compassion and lienency which gives
meaning to madness ...
Am I too, trapped inside the box in the observer's eyes ?
Still alive or not really dead ?
quantum mechanics is formalistic .
It does not choose the state of the object ,
but rather ,makes it incompatible with the thoughts
of the fish spinning in its aquarium ...
an empty box that contains something
is no longer a paradox but a statement
that will outrage all cat's lovers !
Schrödinger was a serial killer .
Only the surrealistic artist and the burlesque actor
know the formula of this box which oscillates
between the tragic and the absurd ...
The gentle kitten is sleeping ,
far removed from these pataphysical musings ...

I would propose a new question. If two cats were in the box which one would kill the other and would it really be dead. Good one Lorenz
They would have been in the same superimposed dimension !
Is that what they call unisex?
This field is moving away from pataphysics and into the world of fine lingerie !
Another fine write my friend
What matters is not the answer but the enduring nature of the question itself ,even if it remains fleeting...
the never ending riddle
Pataphysics is the science of imaginary solutions and answers without questions !
Alfred Jarry if I am not mistaken
congratulations !
Perhaps the observer's greatest illusion is believing that he stands outside the box.
We come up theorie about the liquid element without even suspecting the reality of the aquarium !
Lorenz, what a brilliantly strange and entertaining piece! This is philosophical absurdity at its finest...dark, mischievous, and wonderfully clever. Loved it, my friend! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
while, Shakespeare, Kant and schrödinger ,debate being and non-being ,the cat simply sleeps .There is wisdom in that slumber ...
