EQUATIONS

What fools these physicists be
Every equation reduces ultimately to the same triviality:

A = A

I am I. A cat is a cat.
What insights are to be gained from statements such as that?

Not clear why we ever should have cared
until Einstein shows that energy is mass times light-speed, squared

In physics that lesson was a keeper
So too in Life, in relationships to one's brothers
When some of the masses seem more equal than others
When you are confident in views and withhold respect
Life can hold surprises that you would never expect
