chemistry

what is this thing

we call chemistry?

that rises and falls

titillates and swirls

and crashes on the floor

in mind night:

2:35 in the afternoon...

drama queen enters

exploding on to the scene!

oh romeo! oh romeo!

where for art thou, romeo?

and he

off carousing,

gregariously

floating

down the river

with his party hat on!

a flower garden

of damsels in distress

and jokers.

and prince charmings

were expecting?!

oh, girls

oh girls!

check your own chemistry ratings

perhaps your happiness

has nothing to do

with the whether

he comes

or goes

but the temperature

of your very own

heart

gone hot

or cold!

hurray

for the freedom

to check

our own

ratings

and signal to the world

we are on fire

or avalanche patrol!

swing low, sweet chariot

there's probably a good dance going on tonight

come one

come all

wherever you are

on the scale!!!
