We grew
From a place
With no time
With no life
From a point of no size
To an infinite world
We grow

We grew
With the first atom
With the first molecule
With a chain of reactions
From Cells
To Humans
We grow


We grew our minds
By thinking
By testing
By making
From fire
To electricity
We grow.

Our Knowledge is our greatest tool
It heals the sick
It feeds the hungry
It recovers us from disaster
It can’t be destroyed
And yet it still grows

But what is great
About knowledge
Which can destroy itself?
