Spontaneity

Subliminal

Instantaneous, Iodine. Away from 

lacklustre black, from dull fool's obsidian 

in a plain, white lab into purple

kryptonite - toxic yet alluring. 

Essence of poppy tousled in the jar,

your subliminal scent. Sharp, strong, 

obfuscates my senses, like pretty purple

under Dionysus' grapevine, which ensnares my

every fiber like a python, not a shred of

resistance from my willing body, heart drowned

in the poison, the aphrodisiac, paying

no heed to its corrosion - 

zenith of emotion, like lucent purple

krypton that lulls and oozes with vivacious enchantment. 

Notes:

1. Iodine (53) is a halogen that sublimes (turns from solid to gas) upon heating and turns from a black solid to a rich purple gas

2. Poppy here refers to the purple flower also used to make opium

3. Krypton (36) is a noble gas that is luminescent
