The Missing Link

2024

A dissenting view of anthropology pleads anew for a “missing link”
To bridge the synapse of two nervy historiographical bellwethers,
The historical revisionism that sets itself in opposition
To a conspiratorial world-historical-true-believing vision.
Both bells weather well when ringing:
‘Doctrinal narratives don’t like Links singing!’
Deception’s seen to rule both day and night,
But it’s keen to flee the fleeting twilight.
