you can not add the sum of my parts
as these were placed before me
probabilities in genotypes
alleles interacting to place me
where i am today, an outcome
of squares and science
more complex as a dihybrid
with a typical 9:3:3:1 ratio
heterozygamous mixing and predicting
my dominant and recessive natures
forming this complex being
beyond random happenstance
these genes, independent of each other
thrown into this nature i call me
far beyond pure Mendelian inheritance
i live and breathe as do we all
under the guise of traits and character
as chalk on this blackboard of life

i have to comment on this poem, as it's the only one that i truly identify with...must be the scientist in me. *wink*
next you'll be wanting to see something about an Erlemeyer Flask or something.
and, i never commented! (duh)
witty, clever, brilliant...
a real talent.
i applaud your work, even if i don't quite "get it".
acceptance can be attained without complete understanding. i now realize that. thank you.
acceptance is a choice, understanding an endeavor.
i couldn't agree more. (reg. acceptance vs. understanding)
and, no, i am not expecting anything in regard to a flask...but, it would be nice.
that, and PR shoes.....
and, perhaps, some sort of water not-otherwise-specified.
