The only good thing about Biology of Cells so far
The Microbe
Hilaire Belloc
The Microbe is so very small
You cannot make him out at all,
But many sanguine people hope
To see him through a microscope.
His jointed tongue that lies beneath
A hundred curious rows of teeth;
His seven tufted tails with lots
Of lovely pink and purple spots,
On each of which a pattern stands,
Composed of forty separate bands;
His eyebrows of a tender green;
All these have never yet been seen-
But Scientists, who ought to know,
Assure us that they must be so….
Oh! let us never, never doubt
What nobody is sure about!
Fantastic. Hey poem, guess what's going on my wall? It's you!
Also, I really wish an artwork existed titled "Unweave the Rainbow". "Unweaving the Rainbow" would be cool too. It's one of my favourite phrases. Maggie, any ideas?
