Indium Skunk Works

Disclaimer

If not knowing all the details about a topic may disturb you, it’s best to skip to a different post. I suggest the following:

Now that I have that out of the way, let’s get down to discussing the state of indium product development.

In a lab, 67 steps from the whereabouts whence I write

During the day, an alien material mingles with another

A good cook will add secret herbs and spices

Along with salt and pepper to taste

A canvas splotched with silver

Unwashed paintbrushes littered

Around a palette of metals

Monochromatic abstract art

A new chef has taken my place

Giving reason for reflection

In a pool that resonates better than water

Until disturbed by the air that we breathe

Alone, on the peak of a mountain that few others have cared to climb

I have been asked to paint a picture

And share it with those who chose a different pique

Of interest, I feel empathy and respect

A cold compress to ease the pain of Moore’s crisis

One form solid, but easily manipulated

The other – if left to its own devices

Filling up a vessel into which it has been subjugated

Happy April 1st,
