The ciliate.


The New York Times has an article this morning about a single-cell organism called the ciliate. http://opinionator.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/02/09/unorthodox/ It's inspired me to write this verse:

The Ciliate.

I'd love to be a ciliate.
A single cell, but the sex is great.
I'm male and female, no need to choose,
I never get "the no date blues."
If I'm lonely, I don't hide.
I just a-sexually divide.
They do not have to say "I miss you."
And never need the Swimsuit Issue.
