You don’t think progress goes in a straight line, do you? Do you recognize that it is an ascending, accelerating, maybe even exponential curve? It takes hell’s own time to get started, but when it goes it goes like a bomb.

Han-headed Cathay saw it first, Bright as brightest solar burst; Whipped it into boy and girl, The blinding spiral-sliced swirl: Yang and Yin
Hegel saw it, saw it clear; Jackal Marx drew near, drew near: O’er his shoulder saw it plain, Turned it upside down again: Yang and Yin
Justice, tip your sightless scales; One pan rises, one pan fails Add to A and B grows less; A’s B’s partner nonetheless
Next the twoness that there be In even electricity Chart the current as it’s found: Sine the hot lead, line the ground The wild sine dances, soars and falls But only to figures the zero calls
Sine waves, scales, all things that be Share a reciprocity Male and Female, Light and Dark: Name the numbers of Noah’s ark Yang and Yin
Poem? Drinking song? on Dialectic, Frederik Pohl, The Midas Plague
