And For Our Next Trick
I read somewhere quite recently
that babies born that day might be
the very first to live forever.
How very clever.
And how long after that, I thought,
before the birth-rate must be nought
because the planet's been stacked high
with people who refuse to die?
Might our next great revolution
mean the end of Evolution?
