About
I get so breathless, when you call my name,
I've often wondered, do you feel the same?
There's a chemistry, energy, a synchronicity
When we're all alone.
Chicken fizz! O Lord, protect all of us who toil in the vineyards of experimental chemistry!
I realized it was like a dating agency: the ions are the lost souls looking for mates; the electrolyte is the agency that can help them find each other.
I had found by experience that putting things down on paper helped to
clear the mind in precisely the same way, as Mrs. Mullet had taught me,
that an eggshell clarifies the consommé or the coffee, which, of course,
is a simple matter of chemistry. The albumin contained in the eggshell
has the property of collecting and binding the rubbish that floats in
the dark liquid, which can then be removed and discarded in a single
reeking clot: a perfect description of the writing process.
