The Portrait of Zool Posted March 14, 2002 Report Posted March 14, 2002 (Conversion Confusion, this is actually the third post in this thread) That almost makes me.... cry. ~Zool~ Ancient, The Pen is Mightier than the Sword.

Nyyark Posted March 15, 2002 Report Posted March 15, 2002 (Conversion Confusion, this is actually the first post in this thread) A falling star like a tear, Above carnage without peer. But does the ant cry, can she cry. No, she can work and she can die. The bodies of brethren and those of the foe. A feast for the victors, on those they used to know. Oh for little purpose did they perish. A crust of sandwich and some lettuce. But does the ant cry, can she cry. No, she can work and she can die. A world so big, with so much to see, But the worker hasn't the hope or curiosity. Genetically unsound to give to a worker, that which is the Queen's Because the worker might realize she's satisfied and stop slaving. Slave away little sacrifice Genetics your life's price. Serve your Mother with all possible haste, And if you fall your brother will take your place. But does the ant cry, can she cry. No, she can work and she can die.

Falcon2001 Posted March 16, 2002 Report Posted March 16, 2002 Really good poem, but that genetic line is a tad weird. Good stuff!
