Play With Fire....You know the rest
A 38 year old woman in America doused herself in gasoline and lit herself on fire in protest of one of those yearly Miss America Beauty Pageant's. Before lighting the match, the woman shouted slogans criticizing the pageant's exploitation of woman. Her last words were reportedly, "WATER! WATER! WATER!!"

A manifestation
the world became flesh
I was created to suffer
touched and left for dead
flames scorch my bleeding soul
earth burns a malignant glow

Pipedreams Of A Dragon
We're all secretly failed dragons
Us smokers, and ex smokers
Still hoping that our flames
Will one day ignite
And at last
Fireballs will shoot forth
From our now firey breath
But all we failed dragons can manage
Are wisps, of whispering smoke
Sometimes emitting
Creative circular clouds
That spiral upwards
As they fade away
Like dreams
Rising slowly
From an smouldering briar

i remember how
you lingered in my periphery
an exquisite dame indeed
with a soft ember wafting from your soul
seducing my sub-conscious..
with a nurturing verbiage
drape in never-before-seen footage
rekindling a sacred relic
that something absent in the-man-eye
nursing my blind spots
slow burning my spirit kettle...
making me hot under blue collared mannerisms
with your kindred flame
like a benign seductress seeking...

Morbid Tales
When fire leaps from the northern mountain
roaring hellfire awaits
servants of sorcery
diabolical
rage on the heavens
the rites of their crosses
smashed down
the pentagram burns bright
darkness shall be eternal

I burned that f**ker down
I finally did it.
Took all the napalm stored up in my heart --
the apologies, the fears
the pleas, the tears
the sleepless nights
the silent fights
confessions, concessions
questions and obsessions
childhood trauma
relationship drama
petty suspicions
demands and conditions
intrusive thoughts
oughts and naughts
accusations
intimidations
myth and mystery
ancient history
wounds and scars
snuffed out stars
bad excuses
old abuses
daddy issues
bloody tissues --

Arsonist Dream
I watch the world
Fall as ashes
Back onto itself
Smothering the past
Ambling on remains
Shame unavoidable
Footprints walk ahead
Doom already set
My last belonging
An itchy match
Alone
Longing to be scratched
Fall as ashes
Back onto itself
Smothering the past
Ambling on remains
Shame unavoidable
Footprints walk ahead
Doom already set
My last belonging
An itchy match
Alone
Longing to be scratched

you’re made of fire and i’m carbon dioxide
engulfed in radiant vermillion
our burning fate is sealed
you’re pyromanic
and i’m co2
what does that yield?
set me on fire
and take me away
our potential energy
at a nuclear stage
free me me from all
for which i fail to say
a blazing regret
that i cannot contain
in a clever flare,
your love burns away
our sparks ignite;
only to fade.

Still
Beneath the sun there
Is darkness still
Between the embers
There is warmth
Underneath your eyes
There is burden
Before death
There is still time
And between your lips
There is no lies
The birds still chirp
In mourning
The tide still
Sees the shore
Between us
There is nothing
Yet your desire
Has despair in store
Is darkness still
Between the embers
There is warmth
Underneath your eyes
There is burden
Before death
There is still time
And between your lips
There is no lies
The birds still chirp
In mourning
The tide still
Sees the shore
Between us
There is nothing
Yet your desire
Has despair in store

Firestorm
Firestorm
Firestorm from heaven
Dances blue flame heart song
In blue avalanche eyes that tear through pretense
With supernova gaze into the soul of schoolboys
Whose hearts pound the literature of her book
Of spells that hex them into the heart of love
As they firewalk on her red hot coals
That burn like a solar flare aimed at their hearts
To singe their root with velvet fury
When her bonfire incinerates all chains
That bound them to the man of yesterday
While they orbit her like moths to a lamp
But her glow falls like...

You are the fire, a radiant blaze,
Kindling passion in a thousand ways.
Your touch, electric, sets my heart aglow,
Your voice, a siren's call, it does bestow.
Your smile, a sunbeam that lights my world,
Your lips, like velvet, their secrets unfurled.
Together we burn, a flame untamed,
Desire and longing, forever unnamed.
I offer my all, heart and soul intertwined,
In unity, our spirits forever aligned.
Like blossoming lotuses, we rise above,
A love so pure, a testament to love.
You are my everything, my reason to...
Kindling passion in a thousand ways.
Your touch, electric, sets my heart aglow,

Your lips, like velvet, their secrets unfurled.
Together we burn, a flame untamed,
Desire and longing, forever unnamed.
I offer my all, heart and soul intertwined,
In unity, our spirits forever aligned.
Like blossoming lotuses, we rise above,
A love so pure, a testament to love.
You are my everything, my reason to...
