Commenter VeritasKnight requested a post full of haikus; Joe McKen asked for them to be microbiology themed.
Peptidoglycan
damn you, I am positive
You blue my cover
It was chilling there
Before genomes went mainstream
The retrovirus
S. cerevisiae
The brewer, not the screwer
Fuck C. albicans
Ten percent human
The rest, essential strangers
Am I really me?
And for those who are curious, the themes (in order) are gram staining, endogenous retroviruses, baker’s yeast versus the species that causes vaginal yeast infections, and the human microbiome.

Of course, I don’t actually know anything about microbiology. I just wanted to give you a specialized challenge. :)
“You blue my cover”?? omgrooooan
WOooooo haikus! I am a sucker for geeky haikus. These made my day.
Gee, I know nothing
Of microbiology…
Hey look, a squirrel!

I am reminded of Vogons…
These are awesome! Thanks!
