Blinded by Bias.

sonnet

Blinded by bias.

 

Most scientists hypothesise.

Then try to prove their theories

Dame nature cuts them down to size.

Producing further mysteries.

 

Results they cannot replicate

 although they try their very best

It seems they don’t appreciate.

There is no scientific test.

 

Which proves or disproves E.S.P.

They disregard the evidence

that conflicts with their theory.

They conclude it makes no sense.

Because their methodology

 lacks any credibility.

An intellectual sonnet.. nice... mother nature can't be tamed nor does she follow mans ideals... man's ego makes a great blindfold.

I agree, there are a lot to prove in Science. The "Miracles" are still unexplained in text. But I honestly think we are making progress. But when compared to nature, hell, we can't even compare!

Keep writing.

Science, scientists have to have the correct formula , seems they see no gray only black and white.We need an open mind just as your poem says.

Interesting poem about what to believe and what not to. As a young scientist, I can vouch that there's a lot of truth in your poem. It is a very different subject to frame a sonnet on.. Well written, methodical and telling something to all of us..Do we blindly trust Science or do we just go out there, open our ears wide and just listen?
