Catalyst Chlorophyll

Five finger
Green leaves
Five feet high
In a spread like
NBC's Peacock
 
University instructor
Rides the elevator to
The top floor where the
Top shelf blooms are just
Above her classroom growing
On a sunny rooftop garden bordered
With yellow like National Geographic
 
Her student 
Is but one blonde
Pleiadian male too pretty
For words too Alien for census
Funneling CBD oil into beakers
 
Exchange student 
Dressed in tight lycra 
Tipping the weighing scales
At a hundred and fifty pounds 
 
An ESPN
Extreme sports
Shapeshifter camouflaged
Snow ski racer's complexion
In exchange for crypto kilo
 
She wears
No tight skirt
He grabs at crotch
The rules are deadly
When not followed the 
Vial leaks from the catalyst
Chlorophyll in a substance of
Radioactive pheromones with a
Flowery aroma of sweet revenge 
And a fallout
 
Collateral damage 
Is swiftly elevatored 
Down to the basement floor 
With the mere push of a red button 
To Ground Zero tuition cancelled
 
The exposure siren 
Sounding with piercing 
Intensity ears bleeding eardrums 
Busted with the lesson of the day 
 
Catalyst chlorophyll
Where you don't come
Back to this election

What a warning! Brilliantly written. Unfortunately, very few will get the message that came strong and clear to me.
