Lesson 35

The salmon braves gravity itself,
swimming upriver to lay eggs.
Whales, Turtles, Wildebeests and more
migrate all over the globe, for just
a shot at procreation. Some birds
have elaborate mating rituals
to find the perfect mate. Seahorses
have turned biology inward
simply to further the species. And
the New Mexico whiptail has even
done away with males, but still
reproduce flawlessly. All of nature
has found ingenious ways to multiply.

Here I sit, against nature, crying
I want to die. I want to die.
