SCIENCE FOR YOU AND ME

Berthold Lippel

CHEMISTRY

     me hydrogen you oxygen

     a spark flashed between us

     explosion of joy

     water poured forth

     we sit in a warm tub

     I count all your toes

PHYSICS

     two bodies in motion

     will remain in motion

     until exhausted

     and sweaty

BIOLOGY

     pheromones into hormones

     fleet messengers

     in search of eggs

SCIENCE

     designed

     to help helpless humans

     look for love

    THANKS BERTHOLD - Science has the ultimate answer to sex and everything ! Love your pseudo haiku a very pithy way to express truth. Chemists do it EXOTHERMICALLY - Physicists do it RADIOACTIVELY - Biologists do it GENETICALLY and Geologists do it MILLENNIALLY - Biochemists just do it ! BRIAN

      " Science has the ultimate answer to sex and everything ! "

      I disagree.Science hasn't got ALL the answers....

      "Science has not yet taught us if madness is or is not the sublimity of the intelligence."- E.A.Poe

      Nice one Bert.

        Thanks for your comment LYSIS - Poe has much to say about everything ! Is he your historical muse ? The adage is "Whom the GODS would destroy - they must first drive Mad" I think that refers to NERO ? Yours BRIAN
