The Hydrogen Bomb is heinous
Because it could crack Uranus
And that would be bad
Because we'd get mad
That God decided to brain us!...

a moist transparent mess

one hydrogen atom

and two oxygen

98 per cent of the human body

the composition of tears 
and the seven seas and rainbows...

What can two hydrogen; one oxygen be,
here’s a really good hint, it makes up the sea.
so now we should know,
water is H2O.
Now let us work this out; what is K9P?...

the clotting of her 
soup hydrogen soup carbon 
timebomb becomes blood

the bleaching of hair
black turn brown then back to red
timebomb becomes blood

circular bands of pathetic
misfortunes broken 
by the empowering
stretch of mighty
hands
clandestine candles of hope
reverse into an open
nest of trust
we are elements of carbon
hydrogen and sulphur......

The heaviest isotope of hydrogen,
It has one proton, two neutrons,
And one electron.
If you forget the mass number is three,
Use the prefix tri
You’ll remember the mass,
And the chemistry test you’ll pass....

It's freaking cold in outer space, minus 458 degrees
Where does it begin, just 62 miles before hitting deep freeze
Most space is empty
A vacuum quite aery
Mainly hydrogen, helium and some helmeted fleas...

It's freaking cold in outer space, minus 458 degrees
Where does it begin, 62 miles up before hitting deep freeze
Most space is empty
A vacuum quite aery
Mainly hydrogen, helium and some bundled up fleas...

The blame for fame, old Beans in the frame.'
E don't V indicate  the electric motors
Hydrogen I reckon  is where His vote is'
Combustion power creating forces, a better..
Far; better than those electric; car type horses.'...

It’s another isotope of hydrogen.
The mass number is two.
It has one proton, one neutron,
And one electron.
If you forget the mass number,
Of deuterium.
Remember the prefix deut,
Means two.
This is my chemistry clue,
To you....

Eros-Philia-Ludus,
Pragma!!!
Valence released,
We are like atomic bonds,
And I am the Squared Hydrogen,
She's the Oxygen.
Held up together in the field,
She breathes life into me.
And liquid as we flow,
Solid we remain just equivalent....

I am naked of you,
once again unclothed by love
unfurnished
I know everything of nothing.

In sympathy of tears
the air gives up its water
Hydrogen
You separate the oxygen.

Locked in cycles
we hold our own truth
pulsating
we pass through aeons....

We are shadows
living the dark
of our own 
obstructions

imitators of light
worshiping furnaces
cores of stars

hydrogen eaters

helium floaters

casting nets
into a sea of glitter

our daily catch
of expiring illumination

traveling ever further out

away from man's indwelling 
brilliance 

that of a Sacred Heart...

Hydrogen hydrogen 
the father of life
creating the universe
creator of sun's

We owe you existance 
you are number one
picture the universe 
dark matter space

You are the gas 
that create's the rat race
you are the gas 
creating the sun

the birth of the sun's 
go on to make more
you are a noble gas
the foundation the floor...

What Interests Me  
I know there are men more tender than you
With eyes more protective than yours,
And more other things,
And . . . . . . .
But I’m not interested in the number of hydrogen bonds in molecules of water.
All I know is that without water, I’ll die of thirst
And it’s the same
Without you.

Translated by William Hutchins...

So Uranus smells of hydrogen sulphide 
In the atmosphere on the higher side
With the planet’s unfortunate name
It is the butt of most astronomy jokes to blame
With hydrogen sulphide so flatulent 
It enhances the jokes and is heaven sent
With the gas of the rotten egg smell
We can laugh on forever and chuckle so well.

Heavy metals make you dumb.
Arsenic, Gold, Plumbum.

Those metals take from the dome.
Why not try nickle, iron, or chrome?

Chlorine, sulfur, and radon will take away your breath.
Carbon, nitrogen, and hydrogen can make meth.

While mercury, zinc, and copper were known to the boomers,
lithium, silicon, and titanium were just late bloomers....

Hydrogen, hydrogen, oxygen,
Life
I watch the calm river
Crossing my town
Not clean, not clear,
But dear to me.

I stare the unstable water
I am there
My changeable image
Floats and never stays
I don’t recognize
What looks me and not me.

Hydrogen, hydrogen, oxygen,
Death
I cannot see anything
Around only water
And dark
I lost my last breath....

Reply not to a womans punch:
Bruises you won’t find the following dawn.
You rather her ask to surrender her lunch
For your gorgeous garment she has torn….

And you neither down go
After a woman’s ill-wishing blow
For you can still her show
You  can in her company flow
And her punches, vanishing pains after noon;
Wounds hydrogen peroxide dispatch soon....

The man in the moon met the children of the sun

The stars grouped together and twinkled as one

The planets applauded as a comet flashed by

An astral reunion that lit up the sky 

A nebula formed with hydrogen gases

Dancing neutrinos entertained the masses

The asteroids clashed when Venus came to call

A black hole appeared and enveloped them all...

Listen to poem:

In nature's design, six is the key to all life alive.
Hexagons in petals, snowflakes, and beehives thrive,
In music, blues and roots groups play the six-stringed guitar.
With songs made with a hexatonic blue note, added to each bar.
Six key chemical elements there when life first sprang
Were the notorious Carbon, Hydrogen, Nitrogen, Oxygen, Sulfur, Phosphorus gang....

The night is filled with Gold
Iron, carbon, platinum, water
Hydrogen, helium, silver
Freckled everywhere

Order, gravity
Ancient light, curving through the sky

The night is boasting bold
Orion, Volans, Microscopium, Cancer
Sculptor, Scutum, Serpens, Sextans 
Every name you dare

Thrill the night with stars
Adient flight, surging through the mind
