Inside the cell.
Inside many cells.
Abdication.

Over scores of hours,
the purge expands.
Color discolors.

Swirling
into a
chemical
cocktail,
freshly fermented.

New species,
thousands.
New Life,
trillions.

They feed,
they fester.
They writhe,
they pupate.

Quantum horror
reigns.

The corpse teems with life,
cadaveric and anarchic,
henceforth.
