inheritance


selfishness runs in the family
stretching from top of a mountain
to the lowest point below
where continuity flows
from one stream to the next

what mixes in along the way
is a matter of chance
an unstoppable circumstance
(more often than not)
of unintended consequence

the results will always vary
depending on birth signs
blood type & temperament
complex blue jeans passing on
quaint & subtle anomalies
