I didn't seem to be able to count to three
Until the second go-around, then smiling widely into the microsecond
Flash, the balloon was burst and recorded for all history.
it was, to be here, so many years ago
In this place, that brilliant minds and timid personalities
were birthed into the dazzling world of science,
This is the place where there was no time to blink,
The balloon of knowledge was bursting in front of us
We had only to grab it, to chew at its corners and
Inhale voraciously.
I'm counting to three now, and ten and
Twenty, to forty-five years gone by, still staggered
By flashes of brilliance resonating within these
Hallowed halls.
