could-literature-something-plebian-cuneiform-equivalent-grocerystore-bar-codes

How could poetry and literature have arisen from something as plebian as the cuneiform equivalent of grocery-store bar codes?

Ultimately, they all come from a wrinkled organ that at its healthiest has the color and consistency of toothpaste, and in the end only withers and dies.
