Quantum Hour Glass

Mike Berger, PhD

I threw my watch away twenty
years ago. I really don’t care what
time it is. The Sun and the Moon
are my timepieces. The exception is
my old hourglass.

It’s been in the family for who knows
how long. I use it several times each
week. I don’t trust my judgment when
it comes to boiling eggs. I turn over my
hourglass and watch the white sand
trickle down .

It’s fascinating to watch but it’s perplexing.
The hour glass presents a quantum conundrum.
It would drive a quantum physicist crazy.
How does each grain of sand know when
It’s his turn to fall.

I refuse to trifle with how each grain of sand
decides when it’s time to fall. I refuse to ponder
with such heady things. All I know is my eggs,
come out just right.
