after reading Halvard Johnson's G(e)nome
the straight connections become cheerfully unglued--
and I feel haunted down my DNA's spiral staircase--
rave kid's glow sticks-- those worms float by--
neon, too vibrant to gather but I pull them
down through some uplink all their dreams
someday soon I hope like acid I could drop
a gene-splicer and in a short twenty-minutes
haunt back up the spiral and then to sleep
nestled near the labia of some god
