The Initial Steps in the Synthesis of a Poison

MARK RANDALL/MCT

Protection and regeneration

The bewildering destabilization of the initial state

The useless ionization potential

Who can define love without definite lines?

Negatively charged with acidity

Radical conditions produce an aromatic synthesis

The first disconnection, into disastrous oblivion

Not isolated and independent, but in pairs.

Incompatible atomic orbitals

Juvenile hormones, a characteristic reaction

The everyday reaction, the center of gravity

An absolute configuration, resolution between products

Such a peculiar and indefinable vital force

Two oppositely charged atoms bonded to each other

The fragrance of roses, synthetic equivalents

The first disconnection could fall more and more.

Working in retro-synthetic direction,

Reversing to separate

Inducive effects cloud a metallic mind

Strong acids, inversion of polarity

The toxicity of a poison, combustion can ignite

Excitable energies, a concealed knife

Orbitals are inefficient when pointed away

Lone pair, stabilization of the final state.
