Apoleia = Greek word for loss
Apoleia-Phobia
Insects walk on six legs but some can fly unless
Insecticides take over
No bees no honey
Spiders spin their net for prey with four plus four
You suffer from arachnophobia?
Eat mosquitos yourself
We see eight on octopuses until they squirt ink
Or end up in the freezer
Tentacles and food for thought
Jellyfish are armed with up to hundred ‘digits'
They look like plastic bags
Let us blame sea turtles for ingestion
Humans have to make do with just two walkers
Home erectus but also sapiens?
Prosthetic amputated minds?
Apoleia the fear of loss seems so mega irrational
What has gone wrong in childhood?
Angst gone array from what abuse?
But ‘luckily’ reason prevails one legged
If one survives in Syria and Iraq
‘I hobble therefore I carry on’
Landmines prevent a rightful path and passage
Evolution works quite slowly
But ‘naturally’ artificial intelligence
Will come to the rescue when the rats take over the fall out
