The Chemist's son
December 8, 2020
The boy swiftly walks down the darkened
Hallway, He leaves the lab dark to not alert
His knocked out father, The boy knows
he must be quick
The boy grabs a beaker and opens his dads cabinet,
Grabs the chemical his dad used today
And pours an eight count into the glass
Dashes a dark liquid that his dad says will
Turn him bitter, and drops some rocks in with it--
The Boy sits for a second admiring his mix.
He plugs his nose and tips his head back, his
Nose hairs aren't singed like his fathers.
He smiles at his recurring discovery.
Now he can rest.
