My Mechanical Heart
I think it was circa eighteen forty something,
When I woke up from the operating table,
The good doctor told me “Congratulations!
Now you can do anything if you’re willing and able.”
I gazed around the operating room,
Which looked like a watch maker’s workstation,
I thought the man was more of a mad scientist,
A nihilist when he told me I was his latest creation.
“I’ve given you something special” he said,
“You can have a long, long life if you desire,
You are unique in many ways but don’t forget,
To wind your gears...

The Animal of Infinite Imagination
Proem:
Do you know what genius is
I summon it
It is the jinn
I beckon
With fire and smoke
Corruption permeates everything, cracks in everything and the enigma of everything is that it is defined best by its flaws, by what it lacks, what will hurt it, what will destroy it. I would have to fall down and worship if I paused and allowed myself to know and believe that its flaws are its beauty. That its tenderness lies in its vulnerabilities. That these are a gravity against which all things labor, the weakest points, these crack and splinter,...

Welcome to Class
I see many if's and's or but's
So let's take this subject
And break class down into chunks
...
First module is the overview of genetics:
Many contributed to the human genome project
Yet
What they figured out is that were all based from the same
With the smallest deviation to that flea covered ape mane
Even the plants hold similar DNA
Basic components bound to this realm since it was made ...

Exodus Hill
The seven ran for two days, only stopping to eat and sleep a few hours at a time knowing the enemy was a day behind them. They were going to try to lose them in the forest, but when Joven climbed up a tree, he looked back and saw dust rising in the distance.
“They’re gaining on us” Joven cried out, twenty feet up on a branch.
“How far?” Elio, the squad leader yelled back.
“Fifteen maybe twenty miles” Joven responded. “I just can see them yet”.
Elio thought for a second. “They’re running at full speed. They’ll reach the tree line by dusk.”

A Parable of Purple-Love ( for Flowergirl )
I.
Nature's intimate secrets
are revealed through intuition—
like an insect's blood
mixed with lemon juice
unraveling color's mystery;
Logic explains how marriage between
grayscale cochineal's carminic acid
to citrus fruit's calcium citrate
births living Scarlet or Carmine Blue
Then there's Tyrian-Purple,
the natural order — predators
becoming prey:
Murex marine mollusks—

Outlets
If I hated anything it would have to be the outlets
He should have kept it all closed
I only see that it was a cowardice decision
breaking through what we once built
and all with which awe inspired itself of
a silence so thick
every echo turned to a flat line
every noose's loop pulled straight as it's rope stem
the only leaves about
brushed to bristles of silk on that such tree
right before gravity lost it's rights
which was right after our faces turned to walls

fighting cancer by making cancer cells happy
hats tips to all who have to fight this monster.
The game you play in fighting cancer, at least one of them,
is to see the cancer cells weak spots, and go after it.
When the little naughty cancer cell divides uncontrollably, it makes a blob of cells. various bodily forces are triggered, and blood vessels actually grow into the ball of cells, so they get on the body's food plan, and get fed fresh oxygen and nutrients from the blood. The blood vessels are hastily made, and not made that well, so the cancer cells do feel like they are starved of oxygen much of the...

Anatomy Project
When God created man, she formed him in the womb, yes that’s right, we’re not talking about the big boom!
She designed him as intricately as she could,
making sure every system does as it should.
In the first 8 weeks, things develop rather quick.
It’s vital to the life of the child that the mother doesn’t get sick.
While keeping healthy shouldn’t be a chore,
the mother’s immune system is lowered and allow colds and flus to knock on the door.
Inside her uterus, an organ is being built in haste,
it’s called the placenta and it transfers...

Frankensteins Monsters Mongrel
I am Frankensteins monster
My father was the infamous doctor
He made me a wife but I didn't want her
I asked my father if I could return her
He refused and she got meaner and meaner
I look ugly but her personality was uglier
She treated me like a cook and cleaner
She was a liar, cheater and husband beater
She chucked me out and I was more than happy to release her
I heard she remarried a second hand car dealer
I say good luck to the geezer.
I work as a grave digger at a pet cemetery
I live in a tent on site as night...
