Argon is a noble gas,
it has a liquid gas washing to pass,
from the air we breath everyday,
it is special on its own way.

Argós means lazy, very true,
doing nothing is what argon atoms do.
Inert gas is how chemists call it as well,
it protects against oxygen, I can tell.

In contrast to nitrogen it is heavier than air,
a little more expensive to be fair.
It stays in your glas device, no need to rush,
all you need is a good flush.

Beloved in wet and synthetic chemistry,
organic, inorganic either way.
A protective gas for hot metal,
but industry is not all.

It can protect fruit from decay,
as long as cool and in Argon they stay.
Vegtables the same way,
as this gas keeps the oxygen away.

If you need for a surgery sedation,
Argon is the best medication.
It will not harm you, just send you to sleep,
without pain, steady and deep.

Not pure of course, that would be too much,
fun fact, you hallucinate a sweet touch,
but argon does not smell at all,
whatever it truely is, is hard to call.

Not even with each other,
coexisting, they do not bother,
at low temperatures you can cluster them,
still no molecules again.

Humans do what they always do,
does not exist, cannot be true.
Some crazy super low temperature experiments,
for the sake of research it seems,

try to force Argon into covalent binding,
to be just proud of that finding.
Sure, curiosty is something i can emphasize,
probably some knowledge from that will arise.

Cozy and lazy, is how I love Argon,
the, „I don’t care“ atom,
I imagine it as a sleeping bear,
big and doing nothing in the air.
