#68: June 30, 2006

"Maybe they help us some way. I don't know.
It seems to me that if God has a plan
He must include them in it. And since Man
Is given dominion, it must be so.

"But if you've ever felt the thorny prick
Of roaches' feet across your sleeping chest--
It's creepy, how the damn things move so quick!
Still, God's wisdom cannot be second-guessed.

"They can live for a week without their heads.
Did you know that? To make things worse, they fly.
They lived before the dinosaurs were bred
And eat shit. We'll understand more by and by--

"Or maybe not. The way this world's designed,
It could be God had them, not us, in mind."
