Antimony Foolishness

Age 51 is often when one’s unable, To buy the status quo, it’s old and needs mending. New sports car, how youthful! Refuting the label, Of premature old age, gray hair pending. Girl friends need to be added to the stable, Young women, their company lending, Immortal aura when sharing their bar table. What invokes “against aloneness”, or “befriending”? You’ll find a word “antimonos” in Greek fable. The element Antimony, #51, is alloy tending, By emulating its properties, “Romeo” is enabled. By experimenting with the valence one’s sending, Reactions occur, some of which may be stable, But it’s hard to tell if another is bonding or pretending, Especially, to induce attraction, one increases spending. Remember to study and use the Periodic Table, It prolongs youth, the illusion of vitality never ending. © Chaim Wilson
