The paradox of scientific beauty

Posted August 21st, 2007 by Anonymous

O Beauty, that product set
Of Nature and Intellect,
Both or either cannot select
Unless emotion, in turn, attests.

Though seemingly mutually exclusive
In Nature, Intellect and Emotion
Intertwine and mingle, inclusive,
As though in a perfect potion.

Albeit, alas, science intrusive
Pulls them apart, as body from heart
Ripping the veins (this is no art),
Tools too sharp: abstrusively obtrusive!
