Enlightenment of an Injured Grasshopper ('05)

Inject, the insect,
with all the knowledge of the world.
Then see how long it lives.
Then see how short it lives.
It quivers and it wimps.
Crippled in short crimps.
It flies after it limps.
Unsegregated trips.
To see if the brain fits.

It's dead.
A mind unfit for its head.
