The proton tells the electron
“My attraction for you is
Inexplicable,
Indescribable,
Gravely,
I gravitate to you.”
And she replies,
“Indescribable?
Or nondescript?
You are only doing
What your core
Requires.”
The word gravely sticks out to me though, makes me wonder why it was used to describe the attraction. It sets the mood for the rest of the piece for me, I think.
I also like how her reply comes across as taking the attraction for granted, dismissing nature itself.
