Tiktaalik

In the depths of time, a tale unfolds,

Of a wondrous period, the Devonian's hold.

A world transformed, where life did strive,

And from the waters, a hero would arrive.

Tiktaalik, a creature of ancient grace,

In evolutionary footsteps, it found its place.

With fish-like features and limb-like fins,

A glimpse of the future, where life begins.

From aquatic realms, it dared to explore,

Venturing on land, an ambitious chore.

Through shallow waters and muddy shores,

Tiktaalik, the pioneer, bravely adores.

Its sturdy limbs, with bones so strong,

Helped Tiktaalik navigate where it belonged.

Transitioning between worlds, with each stride,

A symbol of adaptation, where nature's tied.

From fish to tetrapod, it bridged the gap,

In its anatomy, a remarkable map.

Lungs evolving, to breathe in the air,

Tiktaalik's legacy, beyond compare.

In the Devonian's era, life's grand design,

Tiktaalik emerged, a treasure to find.

A testament to evolution's relentless drive,

Pushing boundaries, where wonders thrive.

So let us marvel at this ancient link,

A creature that made us truly think.

In the Devonian's embrace, its legacy lingers,

Tiktaalik, the remarkable fish that sprouted fingers.

Church of the subgenius

 In a realm of satire and peculiar lore,

Lies the Church of the SubGenius, its legend to explore.

Led by the enigmatic figure, Jr Bob Dobbs,

A symbol of absurdity, defying all odds.

With pipe in hand and eyes filled with jest,

Bob Dobbs stands as the iconoclast's best.

A parody of prophets, a mockery of faith,

Yet his followers embrace his charismatic wraith.

For in the Church of the SubGenius, truths intertwine,

With irreverence and humor, a doctrine so fine.

Founded by Ivan Stang, a subversive mind,

A spoof religion born, an escape from the grind.

The SubGenius faith, a celebration of slack,

A quest for personal liberation, a path to backtrack.

A blend of conspiracy, science fiction, and absurdity,

Challenging conformity, questioning authority.

Yet beneath the satire, facts begin to unveil,

SubGenius principles that make one's mind sail.

The concept of "Bob" as a symbol of resistance,

Against the mundane, against societal persistence.

The Slack, a state of being, a break from the norm,

Embracing the absurd, finding joy in the swarm.

X-Day, a prophecy of escape and salvation,

A future date when the world finds liberation.

The Church of the SubGenius, a parody profound,

A mirror to society, its norms to confound.

Through laughter and subversion, it sparks introspection,

Challenging dogma, igniting a unique connection.

So let us embrace the humor, the absurdity it brings,

As we ponder the teachings of these fictional things.

For within the satire lies a call to question and discuss,

In the Church of the SubGenius, a subversive chorus.

Tardigrade

 In nature's hidden realms, a creature small yet grand,

The tardigrade, resilient, with secrets it withstands.

Microscopic marvel, a living wonderland,

Let's dive into the world of these incredible beings firsthand.

With eight pudgy legs, they crawl and explore,

In mossy forests and ocean floors they adore.

Tardigrades, or water bears, their nickname renowned,

An ancient lineage, on Earth they've long been around.

In extreme environments, they truly excel,

Enduring conditions where other creatures would dwell.

They withstand scorching heat or freezing cold,

Adapting to survive, resilient and bold.

In deserts parched, they enter a cryptobiotic state,

Dehydrated and dormant, their metabolism abates.

Surviving years without water, they patiently wait,

Until life-giving moisture revives their fate.

Radiation, a challenge that most cannot defy,

Yet tardigrades endure, and their toughness does imply.

Withstanding cosmic rays and intense UV light,

Their DNA repairs, undeterred by the cosmic fight.

In outer space, these resilient beings embark,

Experiments reveal their survival in the dark.

Protected by their incredible adaptations,

Tardigrades float, defying Earthly limitations.

They're known to feast on moss and algae delights,

Their diet humble, yet their existence ignites,

Curiosity and wonder, as we marvel in awe,

At their ability to adapt, survive, and flawlessly draw.

Tardigrades, a reminder of nature's boundless might,

Teaching us resilience, pushing the boundaries of sight.

In their microscopic world, an extraordinary blend,

Of facts and fascination, the tardigrades transcend.

Lost in depth

 Keith, oh Keith, let me tell you a story,

Of a brother lost in the depths, lost in the worry,

A life cut short by a heroin's grip,

Leaving a void that words can't fully equip.

See, Keith was a dreamer, full of fire,

With a heart that burned, reaching higher,

But the demons of addiction took their toll,

Leaving us here, grappling with a shattered soul.

We fought battles together, side by side,

Through laughter and tears, we'd confide,

But heroin's deceitful embrace,

Took you away, in its cold embrace.

Oh, the questions that haunt us, they pierce the night,

Why couldn't we save you, in that desperate fight?

We watched you struggle, fight and fall,

But the grip of addiction, it had you enthralled.

Keith, my brother, I mourn your loss,

But I won't let your memory become an albatross,

I'll speak out loud, break the silence's chains,

To honor your life, to share our pains.

Let this be a call to those who still roam,

In the shadows of addiction, feeling alone,

Seek the light, reach for a helping hand,

For there's hope and healing in this broken land.

Keith, my brother, I'll carry your name,

In the power of love, we'll kindle the flame,

Together we'll fight, spreading awareness wide.
