Descrição
Certainties: “I have called this collection “Certainties” and on the first page I quote Werner Heisenbergs attempt to articulate the fundamental paradox of quantum “uncertainty”: that knowledge of location (position) and momentum (direction) are mutually exclusive, at least at the quantum level. I have appropriated this concept to my own experience: If I know where I am, I can never be certain where I am going. And the corollary: If I know where I am going, I cannot be certain where I am. My poems are exceptions. They are certainties because they are “fixed” moments of experience or reflection, identified in words that provide both local and direction, at least in hindsight.” – O Autor.
