Harvested perfect eggs, of the mother to be, are kept, in deep freeze. enriched sperms of paid donor (looked after well to keep perfect fit) are getting impatient. the bee, fertilizer nonpareil handpicked and hired, fertility specialist, didn't keep his word; away on leave, "pollinating vacation" over phone, he explains, "my last chance to proliferate my clan, wife is excited, need to make it happen now this time, of the year, the chances are the best" *a melancholy moon, barren woman silently weeps moonbeams over the sparse, still thinning forest*.

Fertility Rites of Another Kind
Harvested perfect eggs, of the mother to be, are kept, in deep freeze. enriched sperms of paid donor (looked after well to keep perfect fit) are getting impatient. the bee, fertilizer nonpareil handpicked and hired, fertility specialist, didn't keep his word; away on leave, "pollinating vacation" over phone, he explains, "my last chance to proliferate my clan, wife is excited, need to make it happen now this time, of the year, the chances are the best" *a melancholy moon, barren woman silently weeps moonbeams over the sparse, still thinning forest*.
Ennui.Lack of libido.wrong steps in every dance. interventions of the stunning kind.Hate to think designer babies are going to be the norm in future.What will be love then? A cold aerated drink? "Darling drink this, this is Coke, deep from my heart..." Ha ha what a joke!
