Oh Pilot Me

RNA or DNA polymerase, an enzyme, protein, attracted to

promoter molecules in the polypeptide chain causing a zipper

motion and transcription of the code, a duplication of codons,

introns and exons, and so it goes, sharing and unsharing electrons.

These attractions and repulsions, coming near and going far

in nanounits or light years, fail to explain things permanently

but make possible the technology to live long and well, with personality.

It is a form of governance, the governance of elements, elements are now

apparently our gods. Learn all you can about their laws, their names,

their needs, read their poems. Only the mentally unusually sound would,

given this knowledge, agree to the process of fertilization and mitosis. However,

organisms go round then senseless via involuntary respiration. Therefore,

      Pilot Oh Pilot Me.
