Cole's Lost Soul

There was a young fellow named Cole

Who ventured too near a black hole.

His dv by dt

Was quite wondrous to see

But now all that's left is his soul.

A. P. French

Cole's verlorene Seele

Ein Kollege, Herr Cole, wagte doch

sich zu nah an ein ganz Schwarzes Loch.

Sein dv nach dt

tat ganz wundersam weh –

nur die Seele, die blieb ihm dann noch!
