no one believed it

until it came true

breaking into all theories

and messing with notions of security


now all truths bit hard and deep

and old ways out of trouble

lead nowhere any longer

we were stuck in our cages


self-made and rigorous

while maniacs threw us meat

and sometimes snatched children

away before they could learn


the cold dark way of earth

and to disbelieve all they had learned...
