Companions (part four)

Stephen Jay Gould says the companions live

in distinct spheres, each with their own muscle.

Value added from domains of teaching.

Neither of these realms wins in a tussle.

Empirical science toils, strives and tries

to explain what we see with potency.

Morals and meaning wax the other sphere.

Both can look beyond with fine mastery.
