Like bismuth except
it's completely unstable,
radioactive.
Curie discovered,
named it after her homeland.
It makes air glow blue.
Workers in Russia
used it to heat lunar craft
and kill dissidents.

Lovely. The end--"and kill dissidents"--is shocking and well done.
BTW--polonium! Marie Curie is one of my childhood idols.
