![]() Noob Goes For A WalkA Poem by Earl Schumacker![]() A Zeno Paradox![]()
Noob goes for a walk in a straight line The distance from point A to B is easy But going only half way as required Going half the distance all the time Is not so simple as Noob might think
Traveling from A to B means shrinking distances Carries diminishing returns for all concerned Noob travels for centuries and picks up speed To reach a destination which is not there
Going faster than the speed of lightning Can be frightening with science on your side Numbers go up and down and sideways With Noob who travels half as fast And half the distance all the time
That will have to suffice for now Points A and B turn microscopic Soon Noob will be out of sight with them But always in existence as predicted In a Zeno Paradox
