Professor and Panda

Carefree Panda was once walking through the forest,
Holding a bunch of bamboo stalks in her paws.
Unexpectedly, she met Professor along the way
With enlightened look and large stack of wise books.

"Professor, - said Panda, - You are very smart,
Even though we don’t know each other, I feel it.
So tell me why bamboo is so delicious,
Why can't I live a day without my bamboo?"

Professor smiled and began to readily tell,
How life began on planet Earth
About four billion years ago, and by the way,
He recalled that evolution is still ongoing.

"Professor, this is very cool, - Panda grumbled, -
But that’s not exactly what I asked you about.
I'm only interested in bamboo, and I have a question,
Why bamboo is so delicious and why I love it."

Professor nodded and corrected his explanations.
Now he started story from the moment of Big Bang,
Take the time to talk about torsion fields
And about string theory, which seems attractive to him.

"Thank you, now I understand everything," - said Panda
And, waving her hand, went home to eat bamboo.
Along the way, she wondered why Professor
Was obsessed with string theory, but at the same time,
He completely ignores problems of quantum gravity.

"I should have treated Professor to bamboo, - thought Panda. -
Bamboo is great for clearing brain.
Although, of course, not to everyone."
