Look into these eyes once
More and behold
Our commonalities
Dearest cousin Lucy
What secrets do you hold?
Oh such perplexities
Images found deep within Lascoux
Mesopotamian cuneiform
Origins of mythology
Always the dreamers
Crafters of tools
The mastery of flame
Apes on mother gia
Thrive through our collective
Imagination
Images found deep within Lascoux
Mesopotamian cuneiform
Origins of mythology
From hunters and gatherers
To farmers soon to voyagers
We are one, the descendants
Of all who’ve ever been
Guid those who’ve yet to be
(We are
The masters of
Abstract communication
Vital
Fantasies
For sapiens to thrive
Sorrow
And elation
Hearts mirrored throughout history
The last
Homogeneous
For millennia)
From hunters and gatherers
To farmers soon to voyagers
We are one, the descendants
Of all who’ve ever been
Guid those who’ve yet to be
From hunters and gatherers
To farmers soon to voyagers
We are one, the descendants
Of all who’ve ever been
Tend to the garden
Or see it rot
As we venture to the unknown
