We are mutating faster than ever
Elongated thumbs and extended necks
Are we becoming more stupid or clever
As we homogenise into a single sex?
Reversal has never been possible
The eggs have already been fried
So we must hold ourselves responsible
And measure all the things we’ve tried
Paradoxically or not, great ideas come more easily from people who are not paid to have them.
Iain McGilchrist
