A microbe,
A bacterium.
So small,
Invisible,
Barely noticed  of you all.
I wonder
If someone has seen
This micro creature.
She's everywhere
Ignored,
Isolated,
Confined
In a round petri plate.
When will she be free?
Will she experience life?
She's living in a hell,
Full of pressure.
Little did she know
She'll soon be gone,
Gone with her purpose.
Humans were done with her.
They've got what they need,
But wait
What's that creature I see?
It's alive!
By some miracle
It'alive.
Will she exist
Or will she live?
This is a door for her,
Door to a whole new world.
She came back!
And with her
Is a magical,
Powerful,
Life changing,
Sorcery.
She became like antman.
She can't transform,
Can't be enormous
But can be noticeable,
Visible,
Can standout.
Her glow
So bright.
It's blinding.
She's not the same E.coli anymore.
She has changed.
She has evolved.
It's not just one-night change.
It took time.
So much time
For her to be right here.
Now she's adored,
Loved,
Acknowledged.
But is it true?
Are those real?
It is unbelievable.
How can she trust?
When once she trusted
And was just left broken,
Dying,
Struggling
To put her pieces together.
Will she still believe?
Or will she be heartless?
How will you make this E.coli happy?
How will you teach her
To trust,
Believe,
Love,
And take risks?
That's the challenge.
A challenge
For those who are brave enough,
Brave enough to deal
With this hard-headed
Stone-hearted
E.coli.
