DNA

It's DNA that fascinates me !
Not why it's there but its manifestation:
a family of redheads get on the bus
from grandma to baby all are one.
My mole on my neck 
in the same place as
the one on my grandma's neck.
My father told me
at his dead uncle's will reading
an unkown son appeared -
an unkown cousin for my father to meet .
Well, Dad said this stranger held his cigarette
just like Uncle had done 
and sat and spoke like him
though he'd never known him -
why is that?
So don't tell me there is no plan
that evolution just happened
or dogs can't smell disease.
We are not in charge
of our genes
or of this planet......
So please - let's try
to limit the damage
our species has done
so polar bears 
have enough ice to survive
and the DNA
which makes their cubs
can remain on earth
for another generation!
