Science (Survival of the Species)

 RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: CORONAVIRUS SERIES


Science

 

Science is not a conspiracy

Science is a methodology

Responsible for the advancement

And survival of the species

 

Without science we would be

Stuck in the stone ages

Struggling for existence

Reading signs and omens

In the mystic stars

And the dancing moon

Where to hunt and where to plant

When to move or make camp

 

Without science we would rely

On grandma’s recipes

And ancient cures

Releasing evil vapors

Through open wounds

To treat disorders and disease

 

There is a place for signs and omens

There is a place for natural remedies

But the survival of the species

Depends on scientific methods

Not superstition and mythology

 

Let the arts lean on magic

It is food that feeds the soul

It enables our spirits to fly

Our sweet imaginations to flow

But when a deadly virus takes hold

Allow science to lead the way

In a struggle for survival

Let science have its day
