To Deal With Complexity,

I spoke with a priest 
who told me that God 
had His reason in everything 
and that prayer and faith were the   

ultimate paths to resolve.   

I spoke with a scientist 
who told me about Darwin 
and Mendel and said that it 
all boiled down to genetics    

and an interaction of chemicals.   

I spoke with a philosopher 
who felt that Marx had it right-- 
that the Capitalistic exploitation 
of man would keep us all   

from true expression.   

I spoke to the Chaos 
who showed me a mother 
holding her child and a man 
shooting another in the head.   

And he said, "Allow it."
