Quote by Jack London
Keola - Dizain
LIFE, an involved existence that we share
with species, that also, IS NOT inert.
A frail MATTER, like that OF chinaware,
HOLDING its own with GOOD wills and avert
all ills, although some are fixed, they exert
their fair place. We are plastic CARDS on bought
time, BUT draw of mixed classes SOMETIMES caught
PLAYING the odds -- exist or extinction.
Strengths help better than having A POOR shot.
Life's HAND dealt WELL ... preface de-extinction.
