Short Nitrogen Poems

Frosty froth, falling
perforating blue eddies.
Liquid nitrogen....

The nitrogen smell
That comes before the rain falls
A scent that I love...

nitrogen rich dung
loose green cow patties flung….
sprouts tender and young...

What are we doing to our planet? 
Processing oils, 
pumping air with oxides;
be them sulphur, 
or nitrogen gas.
Burning coals,
manufacturing chemicals.
Making acid rain -
burning our -
dumb ass!...

Sea and sky in gunmetal grey
Cold as liquid nitrogen
The salty tang of ocean spray
The ozone and the oxygen
Caught in the lash of a flash downpour
Our winter walk on a North Sea shore

The sunrise, pink magenta
Against wispy white clouds

Sudden noise, a lightning bolt
The sky shattered, the air rolls back

Thunder claps, nitrogen floats down
All plants dark green, spring's rain storm  ...

Success a bird nestling in the atmosphere, clouds of liquid water and ice crystals. There are three nestled in a personal basket poems, raps, and quotes, thin basket envelope, water vapor, nitrogen, and oxygen, giving 10 to 21% effort in the dry air, pressing forward as a hardware.

W
e
are out of toilet paper I say!
I’m gonna do my business outside
 beneath an apple sapling. That I may
return a little phosphorus and nitrogen
to the soil I have been so content to
rob. And Years from now I’ll know 
that some bastard generation grows 
yet, sprung not from my 
loins, but thereabouts
at least

Liquid nitrogen is gassing through the wick.
Regulated just right slowly burning the wax,
Of the special candle stick.

But the Illusions looks like water burning.
Its harmless gas that is churning.
You can even light a match.
Don't worry about an explosion of a mess.

Water coming up from a candle stick, while the way slowly drips....

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....

Shaking hands
I clench my teeth
Anger pouring from me
Like Poison it seeps
Tainting everything he touched
Like fire melting rocks
Liquid nitrogen I burn
Memories like paper torn
His face a betrayal of all I knew
With laughter my heart he slew
Dead animal, rotting flesh
I curse him with a witches death 
Hurt and pain laced through my blood
Tainted till I go numb...

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....

               nitrogen fixed bursts
  

                                    nimbus acoustics


                              neon lit cobalt


               static veins pulsate


                        almighty broadcasts


                                             synaptic feedback

I kill for tomatoes

if only they were satisfied
with some~ the fat, green
caterpillars -- 

Weeds seem always to thrive -- 
like children somehow in the
gutter – soil of the street 
never needs tilling, or nitrogen
added, handily replenishes its own 
filth and acrid scent -- 

Occasionally one ripe
with good seed is spared
both plate and gutter

then to be crucified...

The Scuba Diver 

we look down
signal frantically
‘come up’,
though it is already 
too late

he dances wide eyed
with ecstasy
as the nitrogen 
tickles his cells

anemones
cling to the steep
rock walls
fish feed and dawdle
incuriously

we peer through
our tiny windows
into the ink black sea

as he goes 
free wheeling 
down, 
down,
a rictus of laughter 
on his face...

Have half to hang hand in hand
And harp the harmless hate
Then heap the hazardous haze of heartbreak 
And heave the ironic heroine 
Because the hollow horde that hovers over head 
Is now the narcissist on narcotics 
Creating nausea near the neglected one
While the network of nerves brings news 
Of the night nitrogen seemingly never-ending
So end the notorious nudge of nylon personality....

liquid oxygen, nitrogen, napalm
the many methods of modern BBQ
multi-pronged igniters injecting mainline
high pressure laser guided fusion reactors
subatomic quantum mechanical quasar energy
photons vibrating in Orion’s nebula
disintegrating galactic supercharged plasma
ejected from hemorrhoids at warp speed 
inner core’s event horizon is compromised
came through the worm hole
didn’t see it coming...

Smart child can imagine
The obvious wide margin
Between Whore and Virgin,
The young and the Ageing,
Main Language and Pidgin
Birds of Prey and Pigeon 
Human Heart and Engine
Detention and Prison
An Excuse and Reason
A Period and Peason
Oxide and Oxygen
Nitrate and Nitrogen
The Lord God and Satan
David and Jonathan
The Sweet and The Sour
A Grave and it's Flower

Good imagination
Beats intimidation....

Helium Lithium, Beryllium
They all rhyme,
which is the only way I can remember them.
Au is gold,
O is oxygen,
I’m not trying to be bold,
but life sucks without both of them.
Nitrogen, hydrogen
are both gases,
but that doesn’t mean they have the same masses.
Those are some of the elements in the periodic table that I find important.
I really don’t know much about the rest,
because in science class I never passed those test...

you will long for this, Chemist,
i am sure.

inhale.
thicker than your skin,
whiter than the pupil of your eyes.
gush into your arteries,
it's pinholes, and pins,
and pin ticks, and stings.
from your foot, 
(I was familiar with),
to your thighs,
above your ribs,
inside the chambers of your heart.
hold it!
barricade your spine,
this is not your usual migraine.

you will long for this, Chemist.
this is love.
this is nitrogen....
