Passionate Fury
like wind thru woods; musical note.

A for effort.
Erasmus Darwin's 1794 Zoonomia preface
--Go On, Old friend! explore with eagle eye,
Where wrapt in night retiring causes lie,
Trace their flight bands, their secrets haunt betray
And give new wonders to the beam of day;
Till link by link, with step aspiring trod,
You climb from Nature to the throne of god.
-- So Saw the Patriach with admiring eyes,
From earth to heaven a golden ladder rise;
Involv'd in clouds the mystic scale ascends,
And brutes and angels crowd the distant ends.
While Synethic biology stands, America shall stand;
When Synthetic biology falls, America shall fall;
When America falls - the world.
(replace synthetic biology with coliseum, america with rome. lord byron)
