LIFE?
It
is what it is.
Say
what you will,
it is less swell than swill.
Go!
Hold a mirror to Nature.
See it reveal her most meaningful feature:
the
drive, by
ALL
and ANY means,
and ANY means,
to
pass along packets of genes.
From single cells
to mighty blue whales
passing on genes
is what fills the sails.
Everything else. . .
meaningless detail.
Everything else. . .
meaningless detail.
Love and compassion?

Just window dressing.
Art?

Talk of distressing.
Yes, it's depressing.
Yes, it's depressing.
LIFE?
It isn't a quiz.
LIFE.
LIFE.
It's one messy biz.
LIFE!
It is what it is.
