Gadolinium
Janet Kuypers
from the “Periodic Table of Poetry” series (#64, Gd)
(based on the poem “You are a Force”)
10/2/13
This attraction to you,
when I learn what you do:
are you a force of nature?
Is it your magnetism, and
how my need’s only magnified
as I draw closer to you?
That’s the only way
I can explain this,
you know.
I know this momentum
in your magnetism
chills me to the core:
but the world doesn’t know
that your magnetic refrigeration
is the energy we need...
you must have a power
no one else has harnessed,
to do this to me.
The force you have on me
makes my blood rush,
and with that blood-brain barrier,
I even look at MRI scans,
and you’re just the contrast agent
to enhance all my vessels.
In older times, the electric force
between us would even
curl me in an arc to you.
I know, I know, I must abide
by the laws of physics and motion
when it comes to you,
because, as I said,
with your dynamic equilibrium,
you must be a force of nature.

Gadolinium
