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!
