Frenetic Genetics

Genetic engineering’s here to stay Possibilities are endless, scientists say: Men mixed with anything we can find: Oak trees, wasps, ants and elephants combined. Satanic horror armies sweep their enemies away And Frankenstein’s monster’s little but child’s play Compared with these. Yet with Good intent, And wisdom heaven sent, Utopia or Paradise could be on its way: Bumper bug-free harvests every day, Giant fruit and docile, friendly beasts. Food for all, and endless feasts. All manner of Good Or Evil Is within Our grasp. It’s down to us.
