Two is the Loneliest Number

Let's examine him:

I'm back in the lab again, flossin' onyx gauntlets 'n hazmat suits

brewin' rancor that haunts kids and grabs the roots

of those who want tips to laugh and prove, elastic truths:

that nobility resides where the fonts big and plastics fuse...

my mask protrudes against the prism of what time and flasks produce.

waltzing through the gaseous fumes

and stare at the colors of the blasted hues.

what do i see?

i see..

the yellows grab my attention , now my iris is jaundiced

a virus upon bliss : the yellow fever corrupts eye?

no really, which I is the fondest?, beyond this....

let's crack open the freezer and wade through the cryogenics,

allow the vapors to burn esteem to pay a pyro's zenith..

inodorous, inert, it's a true believer of segregation,

deprivation is the only way it sees restoration.

I embrace its solitude as my cores' near absolute zero,

drowning in this state of viscosity, knowing the attributes near though.

there's no sequential pattern, just the credentials shattered

when all I see is that:

arsenical natures argon, now thats what I call an essential matter.

Who is He and I?

a modern-day alchemist and

He.Helium

Atomic Number: 2

Family: Noble Gas
