EVOLUTION 9

I DON’T KNOW ABOUT YOU, BUT I NEED A DRINK
WE’VE BEEN HERE BEFORE, BUT NOT LIKE THIS
THIS TIME IT’S THE LAST TIME, WE’LL HAVE A GOOD TIME
THEN IT’S DONE. THIS RACE IS RUN

SO I PROPOSE A TOAST TO CHARLES DARWEN
SARAH BLAFFER HRDY, DAVID SLOAN WILSON AND ALL WHO CAME AFTER THEM
FOR GIVING US THE TOOLS TO COMPREHEND
WHERE WE CAME FROM, HOW WE GOT HERE AND WHERE WE’RE BOUND

WE CURSE THE RETURN OF THE LAUGHING POLICEMAN
WITH EVERY ADAPTIVE FIBER IN OUR BREATHING BODIES
AND THE MUTANT CULTURAL GENE THAT HAS SO SUCCESSFULLY
ENLISTED US IN OUR OWN SAD FAREWELL

TO H.G. WELLS, WHO ONCE WROTE,
WHEN THE LIGHTS WERE GOING OUT ALL OVER EUROPE
THAT HUMAN HISTORY IS A RACE BETWEEN EDUCATION,
AND THE CATASTROPHE THAT EMBRACES US NOW

AND WE CURSE THE RETURN OF THE LAUGHING POLICEMAN
WITH EVERY ADAPTIVE FIBER IN OUR BROKEN BODIES
AND THE MUTANT CULTURAL GENE THAT HAS SO SUCCESSFULLY
REPLICATED ITSELF IN YOU AND ME

THIS THIRD DEGREE IS GETTING A LITTLE HARD TO TAKE
I WOKE UP SWEATING ON CHRISTMAS DAY
AND IF YOU WERE THE ONLY GIRL IN THE WORLD, AND I WAS THE ONLY BOY
WE’D FUCK EACH OTHERS’ BRAINS OUT ANYWAY

SO I DRINK A TOAST TO THE HUMAN RACE
AND ALL OUR ATTEMPTS TO CO-OPERATE
ALL OF THAT LOOKING INTO EACH OTHERS’ EYES
AND THE ADAPTATION TO COMMUNICATE TO SURVIVE

GIVE OR TAKE, A FEW HUNDRED THOUSAND YEARS
THE PIECES WAS THERE, STARING US IN THE FACE
AN ADAPTATION AS BEAUTIFUL AS IT IS UNUSUAL
AND IT’S WRITTEN UPON THE WHITES OF OUR EYES.
