  • Dark Poem

Giving In To The Succubi

Do not be fooled by this voluptuous succubi
Her heart as dark as an ebon star
Heretical prophecies have foretold this fate
of a man who will give in and succumb

At first the words of the seductress fall on deaf ears
Her words do not fit together like a palindrome
But the more you listen the clearer she becomes
Just maybe you can be the one who wins her affection

Temptation is weakening even the strongest resolve
You decide to take a chance her body too sweet
You indulge in her pleasure and rapture is met
Just when you are sure you chose true

Her smile reveals fangs meant for you
You try to escape but now pandemonium erupts
Was it worth giving in to this temptation
She shall smear your blood across her lips

  • Light Poem

Chemical Reaction

You were told not to pursue this heretical pursuit
You had a hunch that this tree would bloom fruit
The project was greenlighted, you were given permission
Now to produce the components for fission

Smear some molecules on a frame
Induce a reaction with a flame
A chemical palindrome is one possible result
With a colleague you decide to consult

Pandemonium at a subatomic scale begins to occur
The reasons for this you begin to infer
A voluptuous sight to witness this display
colors explode in red, yellow, gold and grey

Ebon deeper than the color of black
Then something amazing happens with a sharp clack
The formula completes and the computers tests are true
A disease has been cured and it all began with you
