Zugunruhe:The pull of the soul to a far off place.
Migration.
Curiosity’s on Mars maybe scoping it for future migrations,
but officially to study why Mars may have gone from a land of plenty to scarcity.
My House Wrens run out of broccoli caterpillars and fly to increasing supplies.
Seasonal changes in food availability? Go South!
Cycle’s worked so far.
I want us to avoid whatever happened to Mars.
Zugunruhe or not.

Unfortunately, I think our destiny is inevitable and we are to blame! Whew! I’m usually much more optimistic!
I’d like to keep thinking the glass is half full. And hope for the 100th Monkey Effect. Scientists were teaching monkeys on one isolated island how to peel a banana a different way. Just as they taught the 100th monkey how to do it, colleagues on another distant island said that their monkeys were peeling their bananas in the same manner. The first set of monkeys who knew how to do it had set up energy in the ether and it was felt by their comrades on the other island. This was a story that started circulating during the Vietnam War protests, the idea being that if enough people were drumming away at the same message, maybe like a spontaneous combustion–hmmmm, wrong metaphor mayhap–a Big Amount of People would start working on the same message and making an impact. It did happen that way with the war protest. Keep drumming Ray.
