Subject:  When Science Fails Us
To:  letters@nytimes.com, jmhall@hearst.com., ekienzle@hearst.com
Is it surprising when the numbers and politics of
science fail us and the bridge of what supposedly
advances us from mere animals suddenly collapses
And drown innocents like the losing pit-bull in a dog
fight backed-up by the savagery of competitiveness
from a "super star athlete" and a modern day thug
life celebrated as a "gangster" lifestyle in Hip - Hop
 
Water surrounds and pulls the innocents down and
drowns them by saturating their lungs in a wet death
There's a smell of a impending deaths in the summer
air like the fright of beautiful horses on a sinking ferry
in mute nostril agony of the mighty, muddy Mississippi
 
They live on the outskirts of town - Political Scientists -
And scientists live the arrogance of ignorance in refusal
of humility as they won't bow-down to any supreme being
other than that of their own intellect raised on a pedestal
And people die due to their negligence and they do forget
All of a sudden there is a God and its all his fault and will
