    Evolution #2

     Evolution #2

    I've heard we swam the ocean
    As just a single cell
    And then our cell got cancer
    Which changed it very well.

    We multiplied in number
    But, yet, we swam as one
    And then deformed our bodies
    Until a fish was done.

    But Nature wasn't satisfied,
    It changed our fins and tail--
    Mutation even changed our lungs--
    For Land we then set sail.

    And so on through the ages
    We sometimes found it best
    When we survived because we were
    So different from the rest.

    Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
