(In response to the prompt “What follows one?” At counterpart.boniver.org, didn’t quite feel right for a submission though)

binary fission.
a decision.
repeat,repeat,repeat
til we deplete.
we are one
we are many 
we are complete

how is this any fun?
(is there anything new under this sun?) 

what if you had something that i need?
a single mutation in your seed.
well we could divise a way
to pass it along
what do you say?

my one is really 2/2.
if I split it in half for you?
and you did the same
and we screw?

1/2 + 1/2 = 2/2=1
(the equations works out! without any doubt!)

wait!
what is this strange one?
it's not the same!
oh my god! what have we done?

but look into those bluest eyes?
so brilliant clear they could not lie
where did they come from
hiding somewhere in each half? 
a long distant legacy
remebered from the past.
they recombine
found love (expression) at last!
