Of topics strange
Of science undertaking,
Is the quest,
And recent tests
Of flies' decision making...
When a fly's brain
Must entertain
A choice of diff'rent actions,
It takes some time
To make up its mind,
And find the right reaction.
Like humankind,
The insect's mind
Gives pause to see the light,
And then decide
Which way to stride
And do what it deems right.
It seems the scene
Involves a gene
That, in Man, helps our locution
Another way
That Nature plays
The game of evolution...
