Spooky Tropical Rocks

Aloha poets,

     In the spirit of halloween season, spooky waterfall rocks inspire
today's poetry. Enjoy!


Ongoing Bingeing in Beijing


Dream rises amidst distant far eastern waterfalls
Beyond endless lines of customers a company calls
Future employees stay mute to this signal whistle
A quiet life in the woods prefers thyme and thistle


Who were they really to ask us to do that?
To give us our special tumor happy and fat
Do-it-yourself worlds approach hard and fast
As if in a fancy movie, we're the drawn and cast


Yes, individual are we with our biomarkers and such
Jobs we take sometimes become a disease we touch
Specific to special medicine, a vulnerability to test
With no two tumors alike, one loves you the best


Become impatient with all the outpatient status quo
Single patient drug goes on trial, so, let's give it a go
Tech scene from the bay area joins in to lend a hand
Algorithms, genetic testing to be the law of the land


Conventional ways take all comers with a disease
Be drug specific, bring bad genes to their knees
Every single tumor has its own molecular clue
Get the one drug that was meant just for you


Manufacturing rises to be a china sector thing
Bay area has their algorithms to the party to bring
East coast hospitals and universities with patients ring
Molecular make-up of tumors to become individual bling


Medical knowledge has a way to twist and turn
Inefficient bureaucracy seems to have time to burn
Should we all wait around while these to organs spread?
Breakthroughs wait in rain forests, predictability goes dead


Are we adaptive in the arena of clinical trial design?
Personal drug for your treatment is innovation to shine
One-step treatment for tumors in just a matter of time
Rain forest jungle genes the next medical mine?


From human to human tumor make-up varies
Genetic screening details what a mutation carries
Physics and biology the new mix tape perfect world
On invitation to this cancer dance, tumors get twirled


No more waiting for a doctor to just see you now
Or long drawn out drug trials turning into a cash cow
Yes, matter and its anti-matter was once a physics rumor
Primordial jungle genes reveal a human's tumor anti-tumor


Clinical trial data soon an instantaneous view
Data bases reveal mutations of genes on cue
Jungle genes make drugs a beautiful thing
To resume ongoing bingeing in beijing
