Ignite
holding a bottle in my
mouth
was all it took to
incite
out early for a bit of exercise
hotter
than I knew
I'd held it there merely the time to put a layer aside
certainly not an attempt to
intice
nor to acquire
a menacing shadow
the rest of my run
pre-sunrise
just hours before
I'd received another
unsolicited
invite
would I care to experience how a particular drummer's stick might feel from the
inside
just awaiting my mid-evening ride
not even drunken
midnight
I ignite
he picked that fight
twelve hours later
attempt to run it all away
I get hot
and find out it is
just
another
day
in
the
life
get home
turn on the télé
arrested another guy
wound up all tight
too late for her to ever be
alright
so
damn
ready
to shine this shit
bright.
