One day I will meet a girl Set aside for me Of all the people on all the earth I'll know her by her chemistry
Her eyes will shimmer like an allotrope of C With one of Cu(NO3)2 One of CuCO3 And hair of Cu straight Or perhaps the deeper hue when Fe2 meets Oxygen Her skin an alloy of Cu and Sn Tall and thin like a long chain hydrocarbon And electroplated in Zn To steel her on her mission to heal this mad and broken world Her heart of Au And Ag tongue And mind as quick as Si chips in sequence Resonating on my frequency Like a SiO4 oscillator tuned to me specifically She is what happens when H2O meets Na Or Li, or K, or Cs Or by adding HNO3 to glycerin She burns as bright as Mg As H fusion Waiting to lift the Pb from my soul So we can float away like He
