Liquid Epoxy Resins


He said that I was a science experiment

An untouched batch of curiosity and exploration

His crystallized liquid epoxy

Had forgotten in his infatuation

in his curiosity

and in his exploration

that liquid epoxies can only crystallize

at the presence of impurities

and that crystals, with their increased density,

sink

and that after a while

my sediment will build from the bottom of my container

and it will

encompass, besiege

agress, and confire

it will build and overflow 

until I have completely solidified

indefinitely

He looks at me and praises the mysteries of science

as if this experiment had not been done before.
