From twisted flesh and sinew
You dared to dream
To think, to see, to do
And in that doing felt
The Universe create anew
⦿
But doing dares beyond
To tell the species how
Uniquely made it is
Not for that which follows life
But simply what is now:
That mind could put an end to strife
⦿
And all, you said, of peace
Came down, at last, to this:
That talking raised us up
That talking kept us sane
That talking keeps the open door
And throws away the blame.
