Chemistry: Oxygen and Fragile Glass Beaker
Chemistry

I am chemistry. I am mysterious and mature, malodorous, yet vivacious. I am a heaving search for answers to all kinds of interesting questions. I am extremely broad, that I overlap with all the other natural sciences. I am the fundamental unit of matter-the atom-only to be seen by the utmost effective microscope. I prosper in the dashing, fiery flames in a fragile glass beaker over a bunsen burner and develop powerful rocket fuels. I am a clamorous explosion of two flammable chemicals intermixed in a laboratory. I am liquid flowing from one tube to another, "volumous" gas, and clustered solids. I am the most abundant element in the Earth's crust, a thick,blanket of gas enveloping the Earth, providing gases necessary for the support of plants and animals. I am the colorless air that is breathed in constantly. I am the plunging rain tah pours when the sun is shining, the white, damp snow that drifts in children's dreams, and the darting hail that prevents little boys and girls to attend school. I am the vivid part of life. I shield protection for those below me from the sun's intense heat. I am fed and drunk by those who go through hunger. As acid contained in the human body, I digest food and clean out wastes. I am a desperate hope for a cure, yet poison, slowly spreading in the air and along the land. I am the colorful fireworks "sprocketed" across the dark sky when the touch of two soft lips are gently pressed together. I am the warm tears trickling slowly down a child's face when the thought of going to school all alone crosses his mind. I am te pure exhilaration every time two people fall in love. I am rubbed roughly against a filthy body and massaged along a baby's butt.
Ancient or modern, I am

    The Bubonic Plague, though not as common and severe today, was once a formidable and intimidating illness that swept through and infected most of three continents in the span of -approximately- twenty years. Due to this unfortunate travesty that annihilated one-third of the population of Europe, we have developed new strategies for undertaking such illnesses. An example of the strategies would be the quarantine. Although it is not used much in modern society today, the quarantine has been a major contribution to the medical world and has been quite affective as well. Whether it is nursery rhymes or quarantines, it goes without saying that the Black Plague was an extremely influential matter. It also may have been the most significant worldwide sickness…

It uses words such as “Jazz” (popular type of music), “steps leading to my dreams” (the American dream), and “short-haired girls” (which was a new style back then) to illustrate the Jazz Age. Nick is the writer of this poem, and throughout the poem, he is observing and describing the different colors he sees in the party. The first stanza is orange and it symbolizes warmth, energy and vigour to illustrate the “jazz [roaring]”, the “rich golden sun” and the “oranges and lemons”. The second stanza is blue, and it symbolizes purity, life and tranquility to illustrate the “bright blue gardens”, the “champagne by the sea”, and the “sky”. The third stanza is green, and it symbolizes money and wealth to illustrate “new diamonds”, “lavish vacations overseas”, and “West Egg in the nineteen twenties” (a wealthy neighbourhood). The fourth stanza is black, and it symbolizes darkness and nothingness to illustrate the “shades of black and white”, the “lost hearts” and night-time (the word “tonight”).
