We got the Master Plan
By: Dennis Spielman
Semptember 2001
A poem I wrote about my views on human genetic engineering. In human physiology we had to write something about our views, and I decided I would make my views into a poem.



We got the master plan for perfection.
But should the world be filled with an infection
Of perfection?
No, to this I say with little flexion.

We should only build organs
For I view perfect people as gorgons.1

I spectacle flawlessness to be boring
Since people could be soaring
On their own level of roaring.

Organs are fine,
But I can see a sign
When I rather drink some wine
To forget all the darkness this would shine.

We got the master plan
From some guy in a van
With a tan.

For all I know.
I like the magic of snow
To flow
The way it grows.

I read a book
No, it was not about a cook.
It creeps me out
Without a doubt.

People must be big nerds
If they can make human birds.

I like When the Wind Blows.2
The story shows
What happens when we take off our clothes
And reveal the darkness that dozes
Beneath our toes.

We got the master plan for chaos.

Footnotes:
1. Any of three winged sister monsters having live snakes for hair; a glance turns the beholder to stone.
2. When the Wind Blows is written by James Patterson. It is about a genetically created human bird girl.
