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.
