Palette Board Speaks of Neo-Darwinian Evolution of Life

  Palette Board Speaks of Neo-Darwinism

Paintings and Verses by Dr Abe V Rotor

If you can decipher what life forms are these
you must be an artist, like Picasso or Matisse,
masters of abstract art - not the ideal, the real, 
the form and order of God's creation remised

Speleology and tourism, what a combination;
though both exploit the secrets of the past,  
trace the beginning of human's civilization,
and Plato's allegory of the escaped outcast.    

 Linnaeus, if alive today, would wonder, 
how he missed in his study 
organisms posthumously emerged  
from science and technology.  

 
 Coral reef of deceiving beauty, 
red for warning, black for death, 
blue for the sky, and for birth;
white as skeleton; blue-green, 
invasion of the primitive scum
that once ruled the early earth.   
  
Crystal ball burning, breaking up like a Nova;
will the fate of our earth precede that of the sun?
Global warming - man's induced Armageddon - 
Lo! his triumphs, pride and genius gone. ~
