Dear life!

absorb me, absolve me. i sinned

once and i'll sin again, going on

magnifying imperfections

dear amoeba! you're so simple

you must have all the answers, on

how to divide, grow, consume

interact with the environment.

absorb me, make me prokaryotic

relieve me of this mind, this weight,

these spare cells. make me spare,

an austere sinless cell.
