Ex Nihilo Nihil Fit Collage

A collage/drawing I created inspired by a philosophical expression meaning 'Nothing comes from nothing'. Framed. For if things were created out of nothing, any breed Could be born from any other; nothing would require a seed. People could pop out of the sea, the scaly tribes arise Out of the earth, and winged birds could hatch right from the skies. Born willy-nilly, every animal, both wild and tame, Would inhabit cultivated land and wilderness the same. The same tree would not always grow the same fruit - what might bear An apple one time, might, the next, produce a quince or pear. Since there would be no generating particles, then neither Would certain things arise from only a certain kind of mother. But since in fact each species rises from specific seeds, Each thing springs from the source that has the matter that it needs, The primary particles, and comes into the boundaries Of light, and that's the reason every thing cannot give rise To every other thing, because there is a separate power In distinct things.
