April 30:Â The biological imagination
The skeleton could have been anything; a secretary a showman a state-of-the-art problem. The biological imagination was a secret, was what we remember.

April 29: In the center of the genetics factory
It’s like putting a puzzle together, and being asked to work in the dark.
Panic fits in the evolutionary sequence, always moving and identified by numbers.

April 28: A holding pen for isolation
The earth is getting a divorce from the museum, all the guests preserved in amber.

April 27: Known only as evidence
Found in the best light and known only as evidence, the fossil could only be accomplished with history— competitive and fierce, and not as wonderful as on television.

April 26: Even the computer has a headache
a first-place aluminum jungle; scavengers of leisure, beautiful but automatic.
standing motionless and nearsighted, they’ll allow themselves to be petted.

April 25: The runway in the shadow
clouds were not true islands; foggy and private, it’s not usually safe to step.
but this microclimate— slopes of white roofs, construction of mist— stretched to meet the new arrivals.

April 24: In his electric growl
he prays to the fertility he doesn’t control— you can make a boat, but you can’t make the ocean, much less dreams of reason.

April 23: A minute to chew through
yesterday had looked like noise and electricity— like birds, it crackled— but now, quiet waved her back.

April 22: Putting on a show in the maintenance building
hidden in the body was the impression of a heart pounding; an animal, a much more frightening animal than man.

April 21: At the limit of her vision
Listening from all sides, she moved and there was distance, intending to catch her.
She rose and fell softly, silent as a ghost of a bird of prey.
Somehow it was worse to be in the open forest than on the cold side of a door.

April 20: This grand vision
Panting echoing in the darkness, the Jeep was the most important city in the world.
A new way to look at reality, which was hundreds of years old; religious and superstition both, this grand vision of imagination and hands.

April 19: Pack behavior
This could be a disaster. We could ease back down and create new life-forms, expect, because you made them, you know scientific power.
There is no mastery, there is no humility, there is only a Saturday-night special cracked open enough to see the difference.

April 18: Crouched down, waiting
In the dark, moving cautiously forward, the sharp teeth repeated, a strange combination of tough and delicate.
Slowly moving closer to all existing variables, all the problems we have so far are crouched down, waiting to happen.

April 17: You want nature
it’s like planning for an earthquake—
you expect it to act alive, to be philosophical; you want nature to do something they don’t believe is inevitable.
modern science ought to know we paid attention to nothing as fast as we can.

April 16: They want to research research
The point where the night is off to wait for daylight; the shift in weight, bright light burning down like a staircase he could never get down fast enough.

April 15: A very poor use
the sharp crack of thunder
a very poor use of new technology to play a recorded roar.

April 14: The consequences of human life:
if you knew enough, you could predict anything.
a postage stamp gives away the pattern, the pattern of satisfaction, of convenience.
we are at a very dangerous point in intuition that we forgot we ever had.
