Sink or swim
How will those
Who dare not fall
Know pleasure of drowning
In the sea of love
From a prison beautiful
Drinking elixir of life
Swimming,an escape, futile
Those who ask
To swim away from the trap
Has never known
The bliss of love

This poem is the result of thought process of hearing a discussion on National Public Radio on my way to office yesterday. I do not know the title of the topic of discussion as I heard it somewhere in the middle and did not hear the ending as I reached office before discussion was over. The topic related to growing human organs in animals and harvesting those organs for treating incurable diseases requiring organ transplant. As far as I can understand, it involved stem cell research and DNA and is supported by NIH.
