Many physics journals include initial epigraphs to articles, as well as short articles that contain nothing but a topical, humorous, or elegiac poem.

<verse-line>Some say the world will end in fire,</verse-line>
<verse-line>Some say in ice.</verse-line>
<verse-line>From what I’ve tasted of desire</verse-line>
<verse-line>I hold with those who favor fire.</verse-line>
<verse-line>But if it had to perish twice,</verse-line>
<verse-line>I think I know enough of hate</verse-line>
<verse-line>To say that for destruction ice</verse-line>
<verse-line>Is also great</verse-line>
<verse-line>And would suffice.</verse-line>

<title>A Cradle Song</title>
<verse-line>Sweet dreams, form a shade</verse-line>
<verse-line>O’er my lovely infant’s head;</verse-line>
<verse-line>Sweet dreams of pleasant streams</verse-line>
<verse-line>By happy, silent, moony beams.</verse-line>
<verse-line>Sweet sleep, with soft down</verse-line>
<verse-line>Weave thy brows an infant crown.</verse-line>
<verse-line>Sweep sleep, Angel mild,</verse-line>
<verse-line>Hover o’er my happy child.</verse-line>
