Seriously

Image of Synapse from www.insciences.org

Here I was
going through
every synapse
in the brain
to prepare
a short presentation
on
the future of humankind;
there he was asking
if the food would be
from my native cuisine
and if
the audience
would have
a fair
sprinkling of fair sex
- his major incentives.

He had 'finished'
the future of mankind
in a jiffy.
