Ruins of a Sunken Pier

 Ruins of a Sunken Pier

Idleness and uselessness are a duo in the art of waste. 

Dr Abe V Rotor

Puerto, Sto Domingo, Ilocos Sur (Megabooks)

No, it was not the big gun

that brought you down; 

it was old Lamarckian 

who brought in the clown.

When not in use, a thing

degenerates into nothing;

once a rudiment,

it is a useless instrument.

The limbs of a reptile,

the coccyx of the tail,

Intramuros or Great Wall

are of no use at all.

Idleness and uselessness

are a duo in the art of waste;

great indeed is loss in disuse,

the grey matter's no excuse.
