I don't understand
Mr Darwin
This selection
of which you speak
seems very unnatural
If I must change
my teeth to sabre
in order to eat
my blunted neighbour
and force them to change
to bigger sabres
in order to eat me back
Then how long before
we are all indentures?
Just toiling
and ever-hunching
for the fear
of attack?
