[_ The Weekend Chronicles _] : Chapter 1 " I'm Se Damned - Halloween " - The Chemist

A Poem by Borislava Zo


Fine unpolished diamond
in a periodic table
of commonly found elements,
hard to trace
unless you posses knowledge
beyond basic chemical strength
of materials and nuclear energy...
Clearly what appeared to be
to the inexperienced .. the
Strongest of elements,
was yet the one
with broken lattice
and misplaced electrons,
dispersed protons and
ions lost
due to the breakdown
of a covalent bond...
Although,
I am a well known
chemist all across
the flask
of psychological impact,
nominated for awards,
with many chains
traced to my name,
combustion, oxidations and explosions
are merely the surface plain...
I play with the Bunsen flame
for the coven of my witchcraft,
and after every Solstice
I leave my book of Shadows
on the shelves of the past
and never look back...
sacrifices in the name of luck...
in the laboratory of emotions
I hold the degree
of catalyzing each process
beyond its Avogadro's constant,
and well above boiling point of an alloy.
I deploy my knowledge
and condense drops of pain
from my experiments
and take pride
for each isotope I create
as a multiple regression of
my exponential imagination
of a Frankenstein monster...
yet the equation of me
remained unbalanced
until that Saturday...
I mean, you see..
I've been an essential thread in
life processes,
as an RNA I've multiplied
until the virus replaced
every cell of the previous state...
slowly taking residence
in the innocence of a victim,
in the veins of the poor hosts,
I create mutated versions
of new elements..
my functions are hazardous
material to be handled with care,
I've played main role
as a cure and
poison simultaneously,
in the condensation of solids,
I've evaporated emotions gracefully
and left toxic fumes
to acidify the rust
of broken particles I left in my
laboratory of
venom production,
disguised as the cure.
In the coffin of hope,
the placebo is strong...
