Homologous: My Father's Brain and Mother's Heart

HOMOLOGOUS: MY FATHER'S BRAIN AND MOTHER'S HEART Dad's extrovertism lures my enthusiasm, Mom's humanitarianism and both of their dynamism births my undying optimism. A fruit certainly doesn't fall too far from the tree at all. I'm the true seed of my parents and live in my & their bodies without rents. Seizing a part from each is truth I can't hide: Dad's intellect, mother's sharp mind. In admiration, I look at them with pleasure – gushing about them even in my composure. I'm the photocopy of their marriage register, they refused to give me a rival called sister. Desires to own a part of you grow hard; Ode to my commander, dear Dad; I continue possessing your Einstein's brains, keep custody of your flowing veins. Dear Mom, I plucked your pure heart, dripping with red passion, falling like darts, I carry them both in my crawling cart. My father's wisdom, and my mother's love, these great gifts are more than enough. No choice but to take up the skin’s demands, mirroring you both in bodies and souls. Have me the authorised rights to copyright and model you, though I'm almost not wright, I biologically earn an affinity cos sharin' is our rites. The combination of my father's & mother's traits makes me nearly complete 'cos it reminds me that I'm a creation created to sail free.
