The pistol of the flower is its only protection against insects. A fossil is an extinct animal. The older it is, the more extinct it is. To remove dust from the eye, pull the eye down over the nose. The tides are a fight between the Earth and moon.
All water tends towards the moon, because there is no water on the moon, and nature abhors a vacuum.
I forget where the sun joins in this fight. Blood flows down one leg and up the the other.
