A POPPY SEED
Who and how to be and do who we are?
for heavens sake, when we haven’t a clue to start with!
The Present tense - breathing
a thing called Necessity?
The embryo organ at 22 days
starts a rhythmic pulse,
from a tube the size of a poppy seed,
by my age nearly 3 billion heartbeats later -
long before a brain began.
Be grateful, be humble at least!
