A student asked me
If perhaps it wasn’t all
Culture, our biology.
No, not yet, I said.
But unless technologies
Fall helplessly back,
As sometimes they do
When populations collapse,
The day’s not far from dawning
When the dominant species
On this small pond of planet
Is whatever reconstructs
Itself and everyone else
Directly. Well? Selves are hell.
