Evolution Bricks
larrylark

In the year man invented brick,
 1
and the quick setting cement
 2
that hardened in his heart,
 3
his properties became fixed and calculated,
 4
he looked to his brother with a meaner eye,
 5
used the rope to mark and measure,
 6
ten years work for twenty leisure.
 7
 
 
He cordoned to appropriate,
 8
placing laws decorating all extremities of land,
 9
and still expanding, bought portions of cloud,
 10
to seal in huge wrap- a- rounds.
 11
Sold them into deserts, making dams that held the  flood  
 12
stirring thickening vapors  through gigantic  pools of mud.
 13
Made the blood red bricks ,built the half baked towns
 14
with which all deserts now abound, and man saw that it was good.
