Benzene

2025-01-12

To see an arcane ring,
an endless string
where, in a dream,
a structure torques and twists.
And aromatic bonds
sing their carbon songs:
You spend too long
resisting what exists.

In sleep, the dreaming mind
may spark an arc
through circuits blind
and running in the dark.
And, time after time,
when existing methods fail:
In dreams (oh, in dreams)
a snake will find its tail.

To decrypt a mind,
untangle lines,
you will go blind unhinging
thought from sight.
And causation's lost
when live wires cross:
Your brain's embossed
electric through the night.

At night, electrons bond
both shared and strong,
they're resonant
and singing in the dark.
And, time after time,
when structures go unseen,
in dreams, oh, in dreams...

In sleep, the dreaming mind
may spark an arc
through circuits blind
and running in the dark.
And, time after time,
when structures go unseen:
In dreams (oh, in dreams)
benzene will form its ring.
