A chemical riddle makes us gaze
As the valency and symbols confuse,
The learned get entangled in the maze,
While the ignorant succumb to the infuse,
The balancing trial remains a tiring play.
The life game leaves us in a haze
The values and significance are crushing,
As the noble find themselves in a blaze
The evil recede to a status depleting,
The equalising effort becomes intangible.
Those bestowed with wealth are in a race,
To achieve the confirmed destination,
Those with lesser Fortune are at the grace,
To retain the affirmed position,
Thus failing to balance the equation.
