If A is something 

            Like a wave or particle 

            Or both in one 

            That from a distance equals B

            But as it nears

            Makes B grow small

            And B will likewise lessen A

            Up close

            Their sum in such proximity 

            Becomes much less

            Than twice their single normal worth

            If you and I have this effect

            On you and me,

            Wouldn’t it seem wiser

            For the two of us

            To stay away

            Than put?
