You know, we don’t grow most of the
Food we eat. We wear clothes other
People make. We speak a language
That other people developed. We use
A mathematics that other people
Evolved….. I mean, we’re constantly
Taking things. It’s wonderful
Taking things. It’s constantly
Ecstatic felling to create something
That puts it back it back in the pool of human
Experience and knowledge.
