But if we play a little guessing game,
we might discern a crude hypothesis,
and we’ll assume that Ciral’s was the same,
though not so many fancy words as this:
“We like to think we’re special, and we are,
as though our souls were heavenly bestowed,
but seen from a perspective, from afar,
we’re carriers for our genetic code.
“And with that code resides another kind,
on which our personalities depend.
The second type is transferred to a mind
by causing other minds the code to send.
“The second needs the product of the first.
The first, in turn relies on Number Two,
without which it would never be dispersed
because, alas, said product got a clue.
