Just Chemistry

You can literally manufacture it in a chemistry lab;

There are formulae and measurements of hormones that add up

To this supposedly tangible entity

 

A nicely brewed test tube

Of elaborately named chemicals

 

The very thing that makes you tremble in your skin,

That has caused wars and set ships assail

Confined to a liquid in a glass container
