biological determinism

at the deep end of the genetic pool
lie normal distributions of life's best
agents of change this is nature's last jest

we shape the world with mind as working tool
and every day we find we cannot rest
at the deep end of the genetic pool

no one expects that we will leave this school
the whole of life is an unceasing test
we did not ask but we have been assessed
at the deep end of the genetic pool
