Aristotle intoned All knowledge comes from (firsthand) experience

                                                                      the story of life is empirical  systematic

reality is described as perceived by the senses

  1668

          Italian physician and scientist Francesco Redi of Pisa experimenting with flies determined  Omne vivum ex ovo

All life stems from the egg

which should have put to rest the question

                                              Which came first  The chicken or the egg

The Egg

Excuse me, but a chicken must lay the egg.

Yes After it hatched

a solemn invocation  a reading from The Book of Eels

                                                         Praise  Look into the eyes of an eel

Praise be

Come unto me Slither unto me   Slither fast on your slimy belly  unto me

the reason

Lavender

he dripped nine drops into the hot water filling the tub

                                                         was arrestingfreaking aromatic

always turned things in his head when he closed his eyes

through the window moonlight flooded the room

cyborg sex

hed had

no complaints

               although partners would only have known if they asked about the scars across his shoulder

at least half were perceptive or curious

scars mattering more than tattoos

                                    hed ask about them could care less about tats

cut  healed  flesh

                    meant more

cyborg  a portmanteau Oohlala do you speak French?   No  Wish I did  If I did I could probably talk you out of your panties   You could, definitely.   hmm  maybe hed learn French a portmanteau of cybernetic and organism a being with both organic and biomechatronic body parts

A complete arthroplasty

Arthroplasty?

Yah

Sounds kinda sexy.

Have I told you how much I enjoy you

Only laughing ribaldly  when you mouth isn’t full.

                                                      most of his partners were ribald

he was

        he attracted in kind not that he wouldnt make exceptions

cyborg was coined in ’60 Manfred Clynes Nathan S don forget the S Kline to contrast with biorobots and androids its applied to living organisms whose functions have been restored or enhanced by integration of some artificial component or technology

they insisted it rely on feedback

that his shoulder worked painlessly was plenty of feedback

No shit.

None

   So.

        I’m fuckin . .

. . An being fucked

By a cyborg.

Yes

That's hot I can’t wait to tell my girlfriends.

Spread it around

she excused herselfwent off to attend to her evening toiletry

after she left he turned off the livingroom lights

                                                  he sat quietly on a boxy loveseat in her small one bedroom apartment

looking aboutaround he enjoyed the dimlit angles from the streetlights below that entered through the tall slidingglass windows that formed a corner to the room and appreciated that the light severed familiar objects altered their shapessuggested  new functions

                                       she lived in a cell

she called it as much

however as her father he told her if it were it an attempt it was a lousy attempt to ensnare her enclose her

                                                                                                                  it wouldnt

You are not me

But I reside in you

a small nightlight lit the bedroom

it was a concession he made

What’s this?

             she had thought to flutter his cock with her fingertips but atasuddensuspect  crossed her arms over her chest  eyed his hard on

In my defense he muttered The song I love my car there was a gulp in there

                                                                              You know it

I know it. The title’s I’m in Love with My Car.  It’s by Queen.

Yes  I shorthanded it the same song

                                       The machine of a dream/Such a clean machine/With pistons a pumpin/And the hubcaps all gleam

Yah

Alright, same song, what of it?

                                   What’s with the hard on?

You left me with her

I went to the bathroom.

You should have taken me with you No sooner you left she slipped out of her clothing I think because she saw you naked

Shes anatomically correctgot nipples GOT MILK banged around in his skull  Unlike Mattels Barbie

Barbie’s a girl’s doll not an android she’s an android.

She is Why does she have to be so damn attractive

They don’t fashion obese household androids, think about it. Her design is efficient. Her elegance is her fewer moving parts. Engineering defines her.

All fats cut away

Inelegant. But yes, correct.

                             However despite her appearances . . an I’m sure you . . looked . . she’s sexually inoperable.

Her components are attractive

They are.

          she turned to the android Shela. Please dress yourself.

YES MA’AM.    

An remain dressed. Inadvertently you’ve . . inspired . Mr. Smith.

YES MA’AM. 

Inspired  he chuckled under his breath

                                          Thank you

You welcome.

Shela admires you Whodave thought a household robot obviously  was capable of takin hintslearnin by example  your example

I should remain clothed at all times?

I didnt say tha

                Shela caught me offguard when she disrobed Tha it was unexpected  Anya know how much we appreciatecherish the unexpected

Really think youre worming your way out of this?

Arent I

   Shela. You’re excused.

YES MA’AM.    

Mr. Smith.

YES MA’AM.

Since youre primed.

                     If you would.

he wasnt homeout of town on a visit

                                       but today wasnt unlike other days other mornings

which he usually spent with lapcats

   today

he was joined at the hip with a dog

                                     bit trippy

wasnt a dog person

                      was irritated by abysmal loyalty ingratiation by any meansall measures possible

                                                                                                              a devotee

however

         he was his daughters dog

as he sat writing letters today it wasnt unlike other days other mornings

while he wrote

his lapcats slept

   his daughters dog slept too

when he reincarnated he was definitely coming back as a wellloved pet
