POEMS AND STUFFDepressed Nit(rogen) by Karli Winzenburg Shall I compare thee to a nitrogen? Thou art so colorless and so tasteless. Deceitful nights turn leaden days foreign, And your undying love has turned useless. Sometimes think my clement heart may sink in, And often does her rich hue have bruises. By choice, the sins maintain and are risen, But nothing beats the lousy excuses. Shall my home of comfort be no prison. Together my soul wallows and oozes, And the complexion of your eyes glisten, When I am always the one who loses. So long as stone can break, or tears can free, So long ends this, and this gives death to thee. SOURCES Sanderson, R. Thomas. “Nitrogen.” Encyclopædia Britannica, Encyclopædia Britannica, Inc., 1 Feb. 2019, www.britannica.com/science/nitrogen.
