We are all bio-electric beings.
There is a current leaping through our brains,
as there is in all cellular life forms
(discovered by Luigi Galvani
in 1780). Mary Godwin
was inspired to invent Frankenstein
who resembled her new husband Percy,
a fierce advocate of atheism
who thought life to be chemical action,
nearly being killed by an explosion.
–
Sometimes I feel a current in my toes;
electricity runs like a river
through all the cells in each of our bodies.
There is something electric about love…
