Nitrogenous Poems | Examples


Ice Cycle

Who could prepare for madness
As i embrace the moment it's like magic
Hocus-pocus the devil wants to snag me
In the traps he sets for the chosen imagine
An athlete in hell cant you see the flash man
Glass gets shattered it's like my heart shackled
As the nitrogenous ignites i shoot past them 
Demons in the night Don't you know how a ninja stacks them
A snapping turtle from a river bed to a hot-zone
Now my footsteps are  solid as fossils
In the Himalayas, Makalu, Lahoste, 
I stole the flag they clocked me at sub zero
Every time i freeze hell over, an ice cycle is what they call me

When Dad Is a Biology Major

When Dad is a Biology Major

By Elton Camp

I liked to give an answer complete
With specific details to be replete

Child’s, “What are girls made of?”
Brought information too far above

C, H, N, O and not too many more
The explanation proved to be a bore

Nitrogenous bases purine & pyrimidine
Are found in the DNA molecule I mean

Adenine, guanine, thymine, cytosine
With P and deoxyribose sugar are seen

In this wonderful helix they all lie
“Daughter, you can see it if you try.”

My answer was far too complex
About replication, gametes and sex

Since all she was really asking to hear
Was repeat of a nursery rhyme, I fear

Hills To Street

The broad sky backing the mountain range,
The narrow electric wire strewn skyscape of my street,
The sprawling bungalow on the mountain slope,
The deeply nestled dinghy of my flat in a corner of my street,
The crystal clear water of the hill brooks,
The dirty water of the drains of my street,
The trees and greenery of the hills,
The painted and covered walls of my street with posters and bills,
The cool fresh air of the mountains,
The smoked blacked and nitrogenous pollution of my street,
For ten days in a year I went to live in hills,
For the remaining I returned to my street.
