(I wrote this sitting in the lab recently.)
Lab Meditation
Look at a bottle.
Stare at some pipettes.
A tap.
The smooth cool bench.
No other signs of life.
Listen to the radio.
Breathe in.
Breathe out.
Watch a rocker.
Rock in time.
Examine a glove.
Sink into its purple.
Gaze at a clear liquid.
Listen to the hum of
the mammoth freezer.
Sit in the dark microscope cave.
Look at lit-up hair cells.
Listen to the turning of the
microscope magnification knob.
Touch the grey benchtop with
the back of your hand.
Squint as the sun floods in.
