Natural science

A simple kind mirror
To reflect upon our own
All the busy little creatures
Chasing out their destinies
Living in the pools
They soon forget about the sea

Wheels within wheels in a spiral array
A pattern so grand and complex
Time after time we lose sight of the way
Our causes can't see their effects
II. Hyperspace
A quantum leap forward
In time and in space
The universe learned to expand

Myths and the magic
Triumphant and tragic
A mechanized world out of hand

Computerized clinic
For superior cynics
Who dance to a synthetic band

In their own image
Their world is fashion
No wonder they don't understand
III. Permanent Waves
Science, like nature
Must also be tamed
With a view toward its preservation
Given the same
State of integrity
It will surely serve us well

Art as expression
Not as market campaigns
Will still capture our imaginations
Given the same
State of integrity
It will surely help us along

The most endangered species
The honest man
Will still survive annihilation
Forming a world
State of integrity
Sensitive, open and strong
