Poetry Tuesday

The Null Hypothesis

Significance? Significance!?
Not at all, not in this instance.
Want to hear a joke? Relevance.
Au contraire, what is real is chance.
Even Voltaire can't change my stance,
Not for all of the bread of France.
Stubborn? No, my pate is emanced!
Oh, I know there is much romance
In thinking we control our dance;
Do not forget that in your pants
Are the creatures that we call ants;
So small, yet how you prance and prance!
For at just the tip of a lance,
Your promises are blown to Nantes.
