Scalia's still a fan of Monsanto's genes
Is it because they all have been altered?
If they hadn't been changed must they throw in the towel?
Is that where the would-be DNA patenters faltered?
They hadn't done a thing but noted the behavior
Of what it turns out is their normal effect.
Monsanto, though, makes sure all its genes are abnormal,
So their bills for patent royalties have his OK to collect.
But who's going to pay extra for something abnormal?
Perhaps only if they appear in one's fields,
or seas, as weeds.
How clever and sneaky of Scalia's Monsanto
To hire the equivalent of J. Appleseed.
Cast their seed to the winds and reap a fortune
Knowing some will end up sprouting inside Nestle's plastic.
When Nestle agrees to pay somebody a bundle,
You know someone somewhere haa pulled off something drastic.
Like convincing Scalia that their modified genes
Created the tumors and cancers that are the result.
How else did he notice what Federal Agencies
Have yet to acknowledge having witnessed or felt?
So what's most important to Justice Scalia?
It seems to be, but can't be, the power of change.
Not for a dyed-in-the-wool lifelong conservative.
Must be a late life fascination with the weird and the strange.
All of the patents accrue to Monsanto,
With nefarious proceeds and notoriety to come
All Nestle gets is its 2000 percent markup...
Still not a bad profit for bottling scum.
