Pocket-sized health check

There was a wee patient with flu
Whose temperature couldn't be seen through.
    What would be super
    As thermometer?
A two-level atom will do.

    It's a catastrophe!

    Anderson perturbed his Fermi Sea, To his surprise, he found orthogonality,       He proclaimed: "A catastrophe indeed",       But now we must concede, That it's just due to energy-time uncertainty!

    A (no-)distillation poem

    This is a distillation poem In two parts: purely, the first one States the ground of the problem, The other shows it can be outdone. Part two is bound to half the lines But strictly words from the first piece. A no-go theorem undermines The rates of coherence to increase. Coherence is strictly bound But, from purely states, Distillation can ground The increase of rates.
