Love's Enzymes Are Carried On A Polypeptide

Somehow your heart enzymes inveigled a way into my system

I surmise it was your energising tongue which smuggled them in

my pseudoanaphylactic longing to snuggle in vein against your protein

its aim a happy interaction tugged by frenzied polypeptide chains

 

when your petite triglycerides coil avidly around my pH changes

hydrolysis replenishes steroids to stop any pleasure level plunge

so that functional-group transfers may intervene at all active sites

supervising where coenzymes await love's coursing stem cell sights

 

that photosynthesise my eyes to sensitise to you despite the dark

dancing in all my living cells with infectious smiles an epidemic

when your DNA can't polymerase enough of the audacious lipids

pleasing as they kiss the density away of fatty acids on soft lips

 

that release protease inhibitors in ways not too selective

so our hearts find their metabolic pathway audaciously live

and offer themselves completely to a frolic in love reactive

Notes

by Anthony Williams

Enzymes are protein catalysts that, like all catalysts, speed up the rate of a chemical reaction without being used up in the process.
