There is no *need.
You should have known.
Beauty
isn’t always truth. The fundamental
has its overtones. I listen to it all,
you say; but that’s not true.
You didn’t know.
Mice, inserted with human verbal genes,
produce different squeaks to a normal mouse.
For once they’re saying something articulate
but no one hears. Just the dumb mice and us.
There is only desire; and it’s perverse.
Scientific method takes the biscuit,
not the glory. That’s how the vermin are,
heading for borders that most do not see:
animals fixed things in their evolutions;
all we can do is go round sweeping crumbs.
