DESCENT OF DOG
Samson shivered in the early morning chill, jingling the chain joining his collar and leash. The sun was a big orange food bowl hanging low on the horizon, bathing the neighborhood in its warm glow. Most of the residents were still in bed at this hour, but a few dotted the sidewalks with their best friends in tow. Samson led his best friend a few blocks to the park. It was the first Sunday of the month, which meant Pug Day. Many breeds of dogs came to the park, but the overwhelming majority today would be Pugs, the flat, wrinkled-face…
NEUROEROTICA
“How do you feel?” she asked. “I’m not sure. Interested, but a bit tense maybe,” said Brad, a thin man with short dark hair, sitting upright in a chair in Janet’s office. Her test subject. Jotting down the last bit of demographic data, she put down her pen and studied him. The screening was complete and the testing begun. He sat quietly, waiting. Once his nervousness faded to near-boredom, she spoke. “Just close your eyes, and relax. Let go.” “Okay.” “Visualize the activation of a number of areas of your brain but don’t try to influence them. Observe, don’t control.…
THE NIGHT BEFORE AN ORGANIC CHEMISTRY EXAM
Last night I had a dream in which I very nearly died; All round me raged a gruesome hoard of mad nucleotides. The sugars and the bases put the phosphates into flight, And SN2 reactions were occurring left and right. Then BF4 came sweeping in with hydride ions grim. From then on, all carbonyl groups had chances very slim. The poor hydroxys all around me begged, alas, in vain, As all their sigma bonds with carbon friends were cut in twain. When lithium di-isopropyl amide entered in, It brutally removed all of the alpha hydrogens And left the alpha carbons…
ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE LAB: THE “REVIVARIN” STORY, WITH FIGURES
(See here first) Click here for larger view of image Once upon a time, I was working in lab late into the night. Late I say. So late that I was having trouble focusing both eyes in the same focal plane at the same time. Of course it also could have been from staring into the fluorescence microscope for 26 hours strait, and getting ready for the big conference that was coming up. The new drug I was studying, Revivarin, was not working consistently, and I was beginning to think that my presentation at the upcoming meeting would be a…

WHAT IF
Tired of waiting for more attention, the cat stretched, walked across the still form and up onto the table. It sniffed the shiny cylinders the man had used, and then stepped onto the machine into which the man had been speaking. Its curiosity satisfied, the feline jumped to the ground, but in doing so, a paw depressed a lever causing the devise to click, whir, and click again. The instrument began talking. “I suppose it was bound to happen: insidiously, silently, and with perfunctory decisiveness. “For the record, my name is Malachi, Doctor Antonio Malachi, not that it will mean…
FIBONACCI POEMS
(For more information about the Fibonacci numbers, please click here) Shyness Fish dive deeply, mouths agape, fins proud and ragged, filtering the oceans apart until shimmer-hooked and then flopping in boat bottoms, when gills heave, gasp, drowning in air; eyes glaze like dropped marbles, clouded and cracked, but holding. Ego She will nod as you pass her and you both will know you are young and raw, half-bitten, spitten in disgust like fruit picked before its season. Heaven Dead leaves jump back on the trees, a reverse whirlwind and an impossible sunset seeking their origins, the life from whence they…
SUMAN
Dirty scents excited her, the dirtier the better. When Alice announced this to the group of sense-photographers at the meeting for the new sensate advertising campaign, they all laughed. Who could have predicted that dirty things would bring in wealth? One of the men opened an illicit capsule of blue seal cigarette scent, and knuckles cracked audibly around the room, as the men shifted in their seats, remembering the gestures of smoking, the peculiar choreography of hand to mouth arguments over lay-outs, collaterals. Half a lifetime ago, the room would have been swathed in actual tobacco smoke. As the people…
