7. I AM A TRYPSINIZED CELL
I am a trypsinized cell.
I am alive but with no ground.
I float in media of life
In search for something.
I’m surviving.
I am an instrument, machine
Without analyte to spike.
I am turned on- The lights are on.
I’m working.
No signal. Just a baseline.
I yearn for a surface to attach to
With perfect optimal conditions.
I place high hopes on Brownian motion.
By chance, I am sure,
Something is bound to reach my detector.
