Science tells us
That our bodies desiccate
As we grow older
As we gain knowledge
We die
As we move through
Our invented schooling
Learning our revised history
Practicing our fabricated traditions
Our fingers begin to tremble
Our skin folds into itself
Or sags
Leaks puss
Fractures or
Bruises
Our brain
In our bumped heads
Underneath our dandruffed scalps
Collecting memories
To forget
