HAFNIUM, MY LOVE

[Dedicated to people and scholars working on semiconductor devices and electronics]

I haven't seen the barber

since the last one year,

because I am in love

with a lady named Hafnium!

She had called me a fool

when I didn't know the rule

that a day is enough not

to please a Mistress hot!

She would react often

on seeing ice cream silly cones,

and I would sincerely calculate

permittivity of her vocal tones!

The morning rains turned me lazy,

zero jogs affect health's kinks,

she pleases me with her constant 22;

love is a current, there's only a you!

Noiseless neighbourhood

and candle-light Indian food-

there's a power cut

how can life conduct?

Hafnium, my love,

pleasant winds out

can never kill my warmth

you shall be mine, 
my simulated bride!

[NOTE: For anyone not so familiar with transistors or electronics, the following one-liner on italicised words in the poem may basically help!

1. Hafnium is a metal, and its oxide is used as gate dielectric in modern day transistors.

2. silly cones: refers to Silicon- a semiconductor used in transistors

3. permittivity: the property of a material to hold electrical charge

4. kinks: undesirable shoots in a plot, especially in current.

5. constant 22: relative permittivity of Hafnium Oxide is 22, also known as dielectric constant

6. noise: unwanted fluctuation in electrical circuits

7. conduct: to transfer electrons (current) from one point to another

8. simulated: transistors and circuits are often tested on real-time softwares before manufacture]
