Coat of mouse
Design, the elastic mind of man
a coat of hair of mouse he grew,
to overtake its incubative home
and shed its sleeve perhaps to grow anew.
They pleaded, turn it off dont let it grow
so they pulled the plug of nutrientive food.
How big it would have grown we do not know,
that victimless leather of stem cell growth.
Frankenstein like laboratory of research,
manipulation of things most loathe.
To control the very essence of life,
man will always search a way to be God.
Amongst and above all he yeilds the knife
almost there he sees a glimmer,
of power he might weild if only,
he could control the ignition of life's own shimmer.
