Sense Sonnet - Chiller

 Schrodinger's Cat

Erwin Schrodinger  theorized that

If he did seal a box up tight,

After inside he put a cat,

Along with poison - 'twould be right

In quantum physics not to know

Whether or not the cat to be

Dead or alive until proved so.

Till then by Schrodinger's theory

A valid statement could be said

That while the box did remain sealed,

The cat was both alive and dead -

The truth till otherwise revealed.

This done in 1935 -

Odds are the cat is not  alive.
