The cities hum with rising fear,
Crime's shadow drawing near.
Dowd's words, a grudging sigh,
Beneath a worried sky.
The heat index, a phantom's call,
As climate fears enthral.
Yet nature shows a wondrous face,
A nucleus in space.
From Karpathy's deep lore,
To Elon's creative roar.
Grok's Imagine takes its flight,
In pixels, dark and bright.
Betalains, the plant's own hue,
And embryo's debut.
From science, life's new start,
A beating, nascent heart.
A sound that rises, ever more,
From shores we can't explore.
And specters in the binary code,
A heavy, hidden load.
The promise of new teeth to grow,
A science we now know.
And old disputes, in light they cast,
Reflections of the past.
