The pyrite pendant

[jovial jay]

My PC screen malfunctioned so I had to use my phone. Though it produces larger images (I took screenshots of the text on Microsoft Edge) I think I prefer using Wordpad on Windows.

This poem is way too long to post directly. Most of my poems end up too long.

Woah, the rhymes and rythm in this are amazing, I love all the physics and chem behind it too (not that I understand a lot of it haha)

Thanks! I may have included a lot of information on this, but it is really simple. I meant things exactly as I wrote them. Marcasite and pyrite are different crystal structures of iron sulfide (FeS2). They look somewhat like gold, and pyrite is called fool's gold. During the Victorian era, both were called marcasite, and pyrite was used to make jewelry called marcasite jewelry. Pyrite has a cubic crystal structure. It can and used to be used like flint.
In the 2nd and 4th stanzas, I meant that iron sulfide is a compound, therefore it can be synthesized chemically, while gold is an element so it cannot. "Ferrous" can refer to hemoglobin, which contains iron, if you want. Pyrite decomposes when heated.
Gold is made into electrodes on electronics since it doesn't react with oxygen in the air. "Gates and nodes" refer to terms about transistors (specifically fin field effect transistors used in processors). Gold is also a good reflector of infrared. It is used to line the inner part of space helmet visors and sometimes as heat shields for spacecraft. In space, the only practical mean of heat conduction is thermal radiation.
As for the last two stanzas, I think you get it. It's exactly what I wrote.

Oh, except that by hydrosol, I mean simply rose water.

Most of the details on these informations can be found on Wikipedia, or science journals.

There's no specialized knowledge to it.
