Abraham's Seed

Cells,
one
plus one,
life-lust joined.
One plus one makes three.
Multiplication instincts, arithmetically forged,
innocence and hope born in love every hour from generation to generation.
Evolution's renewal in an imperfect World,
immortal dreams in egg and seed
sown in barren ground :
a planet
careless
of
life.
