Waltz Of The Pyridines Poem by Priscilla Hong

The pyridine stood demurely in wait
For the predestined encounter of its beloved evolving a 2,2-dipyridyl
While dancing to the music of Waltz they embraced two onlooking sulfurs
Tethering them to pass a 2,2-dithiodipyridine

So they carousaled and sang along joyously but the music discontinued
In utter dismay the 2,2-dithiodipyridine waved goodbye to the sulfurs
And bade farewell to its beloved
With alacrity it welcomed an amine to the formation of 2-aminopyridine

In its restivity the 2-aminopyridine stretched out its hand
Punctiliously forming a 2-(2-pyridyl) ethylamine
With the stochastical collision of two oxygens the amine bond loosened
And forced proximity of the nitrogen to the creation of succinimide

Shouldst life sharpen the tinkerer's tool kit
That is sublimely bondaged to the anarchical driver
And shouldst life resemble a dance floor
That with the unfathomable music engaged
