an atom like no other
between soft rock and a hard
carbon form, we applaud its
deft touches and its vital
essence. We cheer the normal
four bonds with other atoms
green fields and healthy bodies
harvest your deeds, your presence
in chemie, from ancient soups,
jostling with microbes, to a
kinase-driven set of goals
laissez-faire to all gardens
mottle the ways that we live
nuture our natures…then sit
on a basis for breath that
purports to have true meaning
quaque hora you bless us
rich in three-D trim and shape
stay with us on our journey
to fearful places, we need
under armour and new thought
verges of need, fibre and
ways of treating new illness
X-rays try to be like you
Yves Tanguy tried to be you
Zoro would salute you. Sir.
