Weird Bio-Border


In a world turned into a huge microbiology/virology experiment, here's my improvisation on the April 30 border. It's not an exact portrait of anything but it's small and scary enough to be a Tiny Monster, or at least some sort of protozoan. When I was a young thing I collected pond water in a jar and looked for hours at the living creatures in the water, using a tiny microscope and glass slides. When I finished looking at them, I sacrificed the tiny monsters by pouring the jar liquid into the lawn outside, where they would return to the earth they inhabited.
