Physical or Chemical Change? MAG
October 23, 2014
I stared at you for weeks,
trying to place that glossy,
peculiar look
your eyes brim with
The knowledge of chemistry
offered to me on a spoon
was not nearly as appetizing
as watching you learn
It was not obvious;
you don’t wear your emotions
like you wear striped scarves
and fingerless neon gloves
I had to ask the teacher for help
after the bell had rung
He worked through the problem
and we came through with a solution
We determined that you,
boy who sits in the back row,
are absolutely radioactive
with wonder
I want to be next to you
and hear you describe that wonder
with your soft voice
that causes chemical reactions
