Einstein Before His Was Einstein Poem by Tom J. Mariani

Einstein Before His Was Einstein

Rating: 4.8


a found poem in
'The Life and Times of Einstein' by Ronald Clark: page 51

'In Berne,
Einstein was another...
unobtrusively trotting
from Gerectigkeit Square to
the patent office each morning,
usually lunching at his desk,
returning to his lodings
each evening with
the orthodoxy of the city clerk,
then setting himself down
in a quiet corner to
discover the laws of nature.'

I bet a few beers at the local pub helped a lot! Technical note - is this whole thing a quote? I didn't know where it ended and your thoughts began. - chuck
