Man As An Invention:
"The invention of an utterly ignorant
Helpless, naked, multibillion-part,
Energy importing, processing, and exporting,
Self-building and regulating organism
Consisting primarily of water
And operating at a constant temperature of 98.6 Fahrenheit
Requires also the co-invention by Universe
Of complementary environmental conditions
Which operate spontaneously
To look out for the helpless organism
In the most exquisitely detailed electrochemical manner.
Human mothers do Not know how to invent their milk-giving breasts,
Nor the air which the child must breathe.
These environmental support features
Are predesignedly provided."
