The fly's eye:
a giant's causeway,
black bubblewrap,
blisters that render
the world as mosaic --
every surface a floor.
The spermatazoon:
its one straggly eyelash,
its lightbulb head with
the coiled inner filament
ready for current
to quicken its magic light.
Villi of the human intestine:
a million tortoise heads.
The shell of this mite:
ridged like a fingerprint.
Light is too clumsy-fingered
to fumble into such crannies.
Electrons flood the gaps.
A wipe of this sponge
and we all vanish into that
cavernous holey-space.
