For Function, Not For Applause   Leave a comment

Abstract Art by kenne

There is something endearingly human

about the need to measure, compare,

and quietly panic.

Nature, however,

is uninterested in your tape measure.

It built the mechanism

for function, not for applause—

though applause, historically,

has been enthusiastically sought.
