    Quantum Immortality

    Quantum Immortality is a theoretical concept that suggests we never experience death. Instead, every time our lives end, we jump to another universe. Another timeline where we’re still alive. This poem is inspired by that concept. Audio + headphones recommended. Please enjoy. This is a public episode.
