Quantum ferrets make great pets

​

You can stroke their fur

Short for Field Undermining Reality

 

I cheated in a car race with one once

Instead of dodging a wall obstacle

As per the rules

I said, “Go, Pixie, go!”

She knew what to do

 

They hate potential energy barriers

Dig dig dig went her probability shearing claws

Our ride tunneled in no-time through the no-verse

Popped out the other side and off we sped

They fined me but it was a blast

 

I gave Pixie a treat when we got home

Cosmic cataclysm crunchies

Her favorite
