.......so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most
wonderful have been, and are being, evolved

Life?

What am I, Life?
A thing of watery salt
Held in cohesion by unresting cells,
Which work they know not why, which never halt,
Myself unwitting where their Master dwells?

—John Masefield (1878-1967)
Sonnets 14
