A Buggy World, a 'Buggy' Life

Possession's nine-tenths of "the law," Is what some pundits say Implying "weak" own nothing real And brute "strength" wins the day. But if one looks at "biomass," It's insects that have won, For ALL Earth's mammals are outweighed! My, logic can be fun! And insect's also might survive Our next atomic war, Intelligence, a passing phase, Man, "ugly" carnivore. Is "buggiest" the human race, "God's image" just a joke? (Or does God foul His own nest too?) Depends on what you smoke! Brian Johnston May 10, 2018
