Metamorphosis

Metamorphosis

While working in the lab one happy day
You can call me weird but it’s how I play
I whipped up a potion it was darkish grey
Happy Chemist

The mob was mad and they were after me
So I thought I would use my chemistry
I made a concoction, it was acid free
Clever Chemist

I love chemistry and conjugate base
I mixed the solution with a sediment trace
And I drank it down just to change my face
Desperate Chemist

I drank from a beaker that was made of glass
I could feel the change in my molar mass
I dropped the thing and I fell on my ass
Broken Chemist

My skin turned soft from the sublimation
My eyes got sore from the dilation
I felt the change of the maturation
Dazed Chemist

The room spun around, it really did swirl
Then I woke up I thought I would hurl
I changed from a guy to a lovely girl
Miss Chemist

    You deserved a prize for cheek! However it was also very well rhymed and flows smoothly. I particularly liked the feminine rhymes in the fifth verse.
    And a great twist to end!

    How can I not put a rhyme about a chemist into the final?

    OMG, I love the surprise ending in this. Was this Dr. Jekyll turning into a Ms. Hyde? lmao When I saw the title I was thinking more along the lines of a butterfly. This gave me a good laugh to start my morning with and thank my lucky stars that it is coffee I drink and not any chemist's potions. hehe You have a wonderful sense of humor. Good luck in the contest. This is so good. Keep writing poet. seamaiden ♥

    This is a marvelous piece of art that brought a smile on my face! I like how you described the life of a chemist who's desberate to try out the things he creates (that's how I saw it). At the beginning it seemed to follow old patterns but it got very unique and unseen to the end and I simply love that fact! Through the obvious story, there are very deep thoughts I could find behind this and that's one of the reasons I fell in love with this piece. It's deeper than it shows.

    You did a wonderful work with this one, and I can but imagine the chemist turning to a woman...

    Link this to DK! This was a riot! I laughed all through it. I expected it to go where it did, but still it was fun. I am amazed once again at the acessability you can put into such a restrictive form. Kudos to you, my princess.

    Think we all try writing a poem with this title - know I have. Quite the tale you tell in these lines. Liked the flow, the rhythm, rhyme and ending. Easy to read and understand what is going one here.

    ROFLMAO, I wonder, did he add Mydol to that mix? I read this to Monster Mash in my head, worked good for me. Well done, good luck...Scott
