The Catch

There is a fine distinction
'tween release and push away.

The physics of it
is extremely clear.

With no outside force upon it
the 'release' may choose to stay,

While the 'push' will find
it hard to linger near.

Just ask Milady's Jester,
as he wallows in his chains,

oblivious the
padlock's been removed.

Does he stride for new horizons
seek cessation of his pains?

No. He tells a joke,
and laughter is renewed.

We've not considered
gravity nor relativity.

General or Spec-
ial, makes no diff.

Mechanics of the quanta
in a league beyond our ken,

"Fine tuning," would say
Newton in a jiff.

So now that all this jargon
has inspired the eyes to glaze,

and a pain between
the temples it's evoked.

What is the fine distinction
'tween release and push away?

In matters of the
heart? A word. It's....Hope.
