Cold Fusion

by Richard Tornello


Amazing, discovered, found by the pound.
Scientists seeking that holy grail in all the wrong places,
I have, me,
a non scientist, right in front of our faces.
Open mouthed surprise
A solar delight so fine
Right there all this time.
Fridge cold or room temperature
the explosion is guaranteed.
Cold fusion right there:
a thick, heavy, dense square;
energy amazing.
Oh my
The answer is:
Taken in
Grandchildren spooled up
One bite
Quick energy conversion,
What a sight.
More energy out than in:
FUDGE.
