Burn

some people live too close.

to the tip of the flame

heat erodes your will
fills your head with hot air

you haven't yet learnt
the art of Art:

chasing the flame
whilst stopping short
long enough to dance
in its unware

but you can't grace anyone
with your presence



all your wants
turn you into a sadness
anyhow

wanting the thorns of a rose
is unwell and not good

living without expectation
is not stopping
long enough
to get Burned.
