Your bicycles and batteries
The satellites and symphonies
And the paper, the sewers and the steel
The odysseys, and the artificial arteries
Your insights and your theories
The physics and biology
Have disputed the perceived
Uncovered the concealed
Dismantled mysteries
So naive
So clever
So free
And yet so tethered
Look at all you've achieved
Through human ingenuity
But with everything you've seen
How can you believe
In these absurdities?
So naive
So clever
So free
So tethered
