Burning All

 

My teeth swim in tar
because I clamp back
on what I could spew
all over your self-proclaimed parade.


Your words rattle with a hollow bead,
tinder for the fireball rising fast
up my spine and out my fingertips.


I'm just a flicker spark away
from burning all the bridges
you ever hope to cross.
