Set to Boil
In the molecular jive
the atoms dive and ricochet
this way and that
like Ella in a rippin scat.
Electrons spin like wild cats
tearin from their orbital norms
and slammin into the swing
of this hippest combo, H2O.
Wouldn't you know
the show is just startin
with hydrogen boppin of the top
of the solid groove and makin
its move into a gaseous state
where the joint gets to steamin
and riffs are streamin like pure
heat off the street of dreams.
The kettle screams and the
hydro and oxy teams are dodgin,
diggin, loopin, hoopin, trippin
and rippin at the seams of form.
Bop is the top of the heap
when it comes to reapin
a fine line to blow your mind
and your own horn, scorn
the rule that says only fools
jive in where angels fear.
