Now my "Stop" Poem:
Electronegativity
Ions, none, and metal burns
it’ll take your tongue
and leave you with nothing
no hydrogen or hydroxide
in selfish stability
Ionize, ionosphere, and hear the northern lights
If my tooth fell out
would you make me drink vinegar
and would it mix with the blood
like static electricity, electro! negativity
e=mc^2 and the theory of relativity
I can taste the vinegar on my tongue
faster than the jump of an (synapse!) electron
We’re all just byproducts of
our constant, ceaseless entropy
we’re screeching metal. rock and dirt
and to dust we will return because
the universe hates the taste of metal
but loves it when electrons jump
into an early grave.

did you write this poem during chem? because i once wrote something of a similar disposition during that class.
Nah, but I was inspired by chem. It has so many good sounding words, I couldn't pass it up.
Also, chemistry is one of my favorite things.
Dear Poet of Chemistry Goodness,
I love you forever and will bear 3.02214x10^23 of your babies.
That poem is awesome.
--one of the orphaned chemistry children of Guido
*amendment: I meant 6.02214x10^23, of course. The memorization of Avvogadro's number gets a little rusty having been away from the class of wonderfulness for a semester and a summer.
Love the enjambment.
Thanks, the enjambment was one of my favorite parts too.
