The Dawn of Darwin


Evidence of the revolution of evolution
Descendants ascend
Cold-blooded to warm- blooded
Herbivore to carnivore
Genetic knowledge of earth
Never-ending eclipses over eons
Creationism vs. Clarence Darrow
God creates and preserves eternally
Man grows and adapts environmentally
Natural Selection of the Origin of the Species
Extinction-Existence
The iridescent iguana nods in agreement
Inherit the endless wind.

    How young-old are you?
    I feel that age too.
    We’re proud of our gray.
    Our eyes see as well as they need to.
    Our digits grasp the things we want.
    Our creaks are loud at night, unheard in day.
    We smell all of life in the air around us.
    We see into the plans of others.
    We hear warnings but scoff at them.
    Our smiles show all this and more.

  3. Dawn or Dusk? Twilight looks the same at both ends. We come from beyond. We return there again.

    What is more unlikely than a reptile from the dawn of land-dwelling creatures in today's evolved world?

    To see this reptile side-by-side with nature's newcomer, in what may be dusk of the modern era.

    Wisdom of ages and wisdom of aged. Side by polka dot side.
