Dance Of The DNA Daughters



In this watercolor
I've painted alluring Female alleles dancing

they're spreading their rainbow arm-leg
wings
kick-stepping with effusive joy

they're
a long waving stream
a Technicolor chorus line

they're sprawled across the page
I admire their tenacious cha-cha prance
(the paper seems to be their stage)
simplicity may describe the
color scheme
but not the theme of the entire composition

for one day humans may be dummied down
by their consumption of GMO's
they'll be entertaining an entirely
new world order proposition

and with fewer options and gluttony
they will usher in the advent of
the real grey friends to come in the form of
soul-less Franko-engineered Artifical Unintelligbles

that's why I thought the Watercolor
Daughters should have this dance
while they still could

(before the GMO's and gluttony have the chance
to alter their beauty and the music.)
