An Evolution Revolution

by djones_wit

The only constant is change So evolution produced the brain No matter what nature may bring How fearsome, how clever, how strange Man has the tool to play the game To adapt, to upgrade, to remain So the human is built to survive But what does it mean to thrive? The weight of it boggles the mind When one contemplates being alive And we long for the days of simplicity That we left so far behind So let’s use this miracle of plasticity To channel our neural electricity And maybe one day we will find A way to hit rewind And evolve toward a goal we agree Can actually make us happy
