Have you noticed how sometimes
between the cute look and the smile
there is an intermediate expression
like a guppy?
Probably you haven’t
since your brain
protects you
from shocks.
But the camera sees, the camera sees.
Use your autowinder and
you will see what I mean.
Fossils are like eyes
they do not register the things between.
But logic
is like
the camera.
First, we know
(by looking at fossils)
there were dinosaurs:
long necks
four feet;
much plodding.
Later, we know
(using fossils or our eyes)
there were swans:
long necks
two feet
two wings;
and splashing.
In between
using logic
(the autowinder of the scientific method)
we deduce the existence of creatures
with:
long necks
three feet
one wing;
a long, slow slide in the mud.
Science is a matter of falsifiability.
Use your autowinder.
What do you see?
