poems about biochemistry (a series).

#1.

"hey baby"
charming signals,
i can't resist but
bind to him
and in i go
beyond
mitochondrion cytosol
and then he turns,
and he's conformed,
and he motions to a coenzyme A
it begins: my cyclic hell.
they cleave my carbons
two-at-a-time
round and round we go,
FADH2 and NADH, hello.
until i am but
acetyl-coa.
