Global warning, Likening us to lichens Or pandering to pandas Because we are bone of one bone And flesh of one flesh: Life can end.   What would we? Are we driven to be driven? Revved to rev? Nor do we need what we need. If each cell is a cellmate, Now we must get on our knees, Given time to be forgiven.
