Choose a word, something simple like “Gonk”. Slip in an”I” gene, and it now becomes “Gionk,orGonik” Leave it a while to change to “Gioniki”. Another nice word ruined be genes.

A bumbling, mumbling, tumbling Bee. Trundling slowly from flower to flower, Landing flop bellied in a shower of pollen. Such a heavy body. so little power, Like a Rhino’ in a baby shower. Reminds me of someone, who can it be? Well if not you, it must be me!

Wonder why human beings, think inhuman ways to spoil natures beauty, Creating disgusting images, Cloning chickens without feathers. I wrote this after seeing disgusting pictures on television of chickens without feathers, in particular one trying to have a dust bath – hideous!
