Biology

Biology! Biology! How many times have I called you? You frighten me every time I hear your name, Because I can’t withstand your lies and pain you cause me, You lack conscience since you introduced unknown world to me, You gave heartburns and caused veins to deflate in me, Biology! Biology! Who invented you? Biology! Biology who told you to exist? You only care about yourself and not anyone, You talk of reproduction without caring for everyone, You have no knowledge how loneliness pains me, But you still insist two together increases happiness in me, Biology! Biology! Was it important for you to exist? Biology! Biology! I don’t know if you have sympathy, You say I am black, he is white and the other is brownly, You confuse me since grade 8 with your genetic narratives, Feeding on my curiosity with blood circulation stories, But you still insist our blood is reddish although different skins, Biology! Biology! You should show some empathy. Biology! Biology! Stop telling me about mitosis and meiosis, Stop forcing me to cram the interphase and metaphase stages, Stop creating new viruses, bacteria, fungi, and parasites, Stop inducing fear in people with health issues and diseases, Stop talking about centrosomes, chromosomes, cytoplasm, and spindles, Biology! Biology! Those terms swing in my head and bloat my nerves. Biology! Biology! I am not done with you but will be back, To tell you the truth about me since you care about chromatins, We shall chat about those coils, tight and tense kinetochores, Get the facts about nuclear membranes and magical sporophytes, The why(s) of evolution, nomenclature, mammals, birds, and fishes, The magnificent zygomatic arch, plasma cortisol, and catecholamines, Because unlike you Biology I care about sperms, ova, and human being’s hormones.
