I can sense excess epinephrine, or
norepinphrine, clouding my judgement,
These adrenergic sons of Entactus;
The cathinone is but
simple amphetamine's
beta-ketone younger-cousin.

Replaced a methyl group with a fluoro one
and mephedrone's little brother was born:
The adorable flephedrone, don't be fooled though.

The stimulant is a chancer and a trickster,
Though this one seems more empathogenic than its brother;
I may be in danger of learning something.
I maintain there is less to learn than they would take
but perhaps I can moderate a fair trade. Hard to say.
Of 4-MethylMethCathinone and 4-FluoroMethCathinone,
Both entactogens promote ego but whereas
4-MMC is closer to speed-amphetamine
4-FMC has some empathogenic quality.

Interesting that such a small change in molecule
creates such noticeably differing subjective effect.
Any difference in toxicity must also be accounted for.
