F R Bs
Vibrating
through the universe
the wonders of
Fast Radio Bursts
signals conveyed
light-years away
some repeating
all entreating
to be heard
by wave or word
science leery
prompting theory
of why they play
or if they say
cosmic quandaries
since conceived
with energies
barely believed
exceeding physics
yet achieved
now how to answer
what's received....
