Memory, Routine and Creation

I wonder how much life am I forgetting 
Which parts wandered and got lost in the fog 
For each and every time my eyes start wetting
I ponder if I’m just remembering it wrong 

I wonder how much of life is in a vacuum 
Failing to break away from flat routine
Spent years in suffocation in a classroom
Dulled down to be a cog in the machine 

The wispy sun sighs through my curtains 
I’m not particularly prideful of my job
Don’t do great work like scientists or surgeons 
I just create and close my eyes when it feels wrong 

I doubt how much of life I’m living forwards 
The weeks and ends get jumbled in my head
I try to feel it out and sketch the borders 
But all my convolutions turn to lead 

My thoughts are friction turning into vapor 
Collecting it is in my adenine
Give birth each time I put my pen to paper
And when I die they’ll put my sh*t in a museum

Premium Member New Little Brother

My mom and dad did not know
that I was a genius.  It didn't show.
I was nothing like the other boys
when I grabbed a box of tinker toys 
and paired it with adenine and thymine,
planning something you've never seen. 
With cytosine and guanine in the mix,
I added DNA to my bag of tricks, 
along with fish dad pulled from the lake
and some raw meat mom was fixing to bake. 
I put it together, one after another.
Soon, I'd constructed a new little brother.

Discrimination of Human Over the Years

Discrimination of human being over the years
It was an un answered question for me for all these years
I have been searching ,asking ,finding the answer
For all these years 
I have found an answer to myself
Happiness is the prime key,aspect for a human being to discriminate the other..
Yes ,happiness is the key factor for discrimination

Human finds happiness in degrading others in terms of character ,in terms of culture.
Caste discrimination in india
Color discrimination in America
Country might be different but the character of human will be the same ,The gene behaviour is the same ,human being happiness lies in discriminating the others..human gene never likes equality .
The adenine thymine guanine cytosine likes no equality discrimination lies in the genes..
Happiness is the key for all human being who have been discriminating others over the years.
Human gene likes no equality..
human likes discrimination in reality

Death, Where Are You

We are made of adenine,
But my soul is made of kerosene,
And life is my amphetamine,
                    Death, where are you

My body is half H20,
But my soul burns in the adagio,
Of a forsaken maestro,
                    Death, where are you

Though, on the high of cigarettes,
My breathless lungs will bear regrets,
The echoes of my youth’s musette,
                    Death, where are you

If we’re talking chemically,
Then emotions were my ecstasy,
And death, it is my destiny,
                    Death, where are you

Four Plex Permute

about 25k of DNA
that's all we got
for expressions to say
but more than a lot

adenine and cytosine, 
long to interlace,
guanine and thymine
to make a living base

all stewed in nucleotides
helixed turns so linked
is what makes life's ride
to all organisms distinct

finned salmon fishes
grizzlies and finches
appointed life's wishes
for nature, it's a cinch

too, flies and butterflies
anaconda's and darter snails
life's supplies in disguise
diversity of crittered tales

it's puzzling to piece
just how life can do it
with near-infinite increase
of its proteined tool kit

switched on proteins
morph winged extremities
to myriad of in-betweens
and other of life's remedies

go for it, life says
make a smash, make a mistake
live it to the hilt
all ways alive, for life's sake

When Dad Is a Biology Major

When Dad is a Biology Major

By Elton Camp

I liked to give an answer complete
With specific details to be replete

Child’s, “What are girls made of?”
Brought information too far above

C, H, N, O and not too many more
The explanation proved to be a bore

Nitrogenous bases purine & pyrimidine
Are found in the DNA molecule I mean

Adenine, guanine, thymine, cytosine
With P and deoxyribose sugar are seen

In this wonderful helix they all lie
“Daughter, you can see it if you try.”

My answer was far too complex
About replication, gametes and sex

Since all she was really asking to hear
Was repeat of a nursery rhyme, I fear
