And a broken line they said
Was everything made
But who drew the line straight
And who came back to break it
The races of men devolved
From the moods of more complicated species
Who range above us in ranks they said
That can still be perceived
Hierarchies to be feared and obeyed
Whose straight and broken lines
Showed us how they did it
How they descended into words
How they quarreled among themselves they said
To bring love into the world
