Distinct Inseparation Poem by Priscilla Hong

Distinct Inseparation



Oh reveal to me a means,
Of how literature and chemistry can reside in harmony.

Literature, the mystical art of stringing words;
Chemistry, the esoteric science of bonding elements.

Litearature, demands fantasy;
Chemistry, commands imagination.

Literature, manifests the mystery of God;
Chemistry, testifies His wisdom.

Literature, you are a rhetoric ostensible character;
Chemistry, you are a hauntingly beautiful wonder.

Language and science, literature and chemistry, both labyrinthine;
You are never two parallel lines, nor distant and surreal.
You may be shy and reticent but behold...
You are an implicitly promising pair!
