#1  Accidentally on Purpose - By Robert Frost

Accidentally on Purpose
  By Robert Frost

The Universe is but the Thing of things,
The things but balls all going round in rings.
Some of them mighty huge, some mighty tiny,
All of them radiant and mighty shiny.

They mean to tell us all was rolling blind
Till accidentally it hit on mind
In an albino monkey in a jungle
And even then it had to grope and bungle,

Till Darwin came to earth upon a year
To show the evolution how to steer.
They mean to tell us, though, the Omnibus
Had no real purpose till it got to us.

Never believe it. At the very worst
It must have had the purpose from the first
To produce purpose as the fitter bred:
We were just purpose coming to a head.

Whose purpose was it? His or Hers or Its?
Let's leave that to the scientific wits.
Grant me intention, purpose, and design -
That's near enough for me to the Divine.

And yet for all this help of head and brain
How happily instinctive we remain,
Our best guide upward further to the light,
Passionate preference such as love at sight.

调侃我的祖师爷达尔文啊,不过歪打正着,这写得大都还挺对我胃口,特别是诗题,就是这么回事嘛,accidental 和 on purpose是可以合为一体的不是。

恭敬不如从命,勉强来第一段博一笑

这宇宙那些事儿嘛就是这么回事
这些事儿嘛就是些球儿绕着圈儿驶
有些大得紧,有些小得紧
但个个容光焕发耀眼得紧
