PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

The fire dances in my eyes

Hyperactivity spreading throughout my veins

I strike the match on the ridges of its book

The flame leaps into existance

Burning the air around it, and I can't help but grin



It burns ever so brightly

Licking and nipping at the skies

I sing and dance, rejoicing

Running about haphazardly

Crying to the heavens in rapture



The fire blazes out of control

Burning all in its path, utter destruction

As Mother Earty screams her angry protests

I cannot help it - a laugh escapes my throat

I frolic and leap, taking pleasure in her pain



But soon the fire begins to wane

My sugar high ebbs like the tide

The last ember is doused, and I crash

I sleep, dreaming of a new day

A new day of inferno and laughter
