IDENTITY THEORY

The judges,
rimmed around the outer 
reaches 

of Whatness,
all agree: 

unanswerable questions 
related to How

will receive 

no additional points 
for originality. 

*

Fortunately, 
the way congruity works 
has been 

grossly 
overdetermined—

a blind selfish 
gene 

and an all-seeing 
eye 

will eventually 
combine forces;

the unaccounted-
for moment 

nevertheless arrives 

when "there"
and "here" 

drive distracted—
and collide.
