I really like the almost vector-graphic look to this one; it looks just like a fractal rendered in watercolor.
The image reminds me of a documentary I saw on a researcher who went up to Alaska to dig up a Spanish Influenza victim from 1918 and take a sample of their frozen lung tissue back to the lab to extract the still viable flu virus from it.
It's interesting how fractal images can inspire us with fresh ideas.
Fire in the heart
Warmed by the Fire Within
Within the cocoon, a launching pad
Aches for the missing hipsters
Of the current younger generation --
The virgins yet to be tattooed
All lug nuts on the torture apparatus
Have been greased with Sudanese oil
And copper coils have been creamed
To pierce with sting ray venom and Viagra
If the cloning goes well, multiple maniacs
Will be flung at corporate high rises
To splatter belly-up against the panes
Their squid juices of dementia praecox
Infecting networks of circuitry with their babble
Oozing insane pustules of rant across tv screens
Planting schizophrenic spores inside the wombs
Of wall street stockbrokers before the next crash
As the Chinese call in their loans
And U. S. treasury bonds tank
And the whole economy beaches
Like a giant whale without any icebergs
