Poet & Thief

Rubidium Rb, 37

You want to live in the shadows

where everything is soft, silver, gray,
want to easily vaporize,

ignite out of the blue.

Are highly reactive–polarizing,

a violet explosion.

Feel how heat shifts in me.

You are a believer

in spontaneous fission

But just try and separate

what you believe

from what you feel.

 

Elemental, poems written to the Periodic table

Elemental, by Julia Klatt Singer, is a set of poems written to the Periodic table. They are poems based on the nature and properties of the elements, and how they become a part of our lives, both lived and imagined. Like the Periodic table itself, they are about relationships, and what is triggered in the nearness of one another. Price includes shipping and handling
