Fire

My life is like a mossy pond,
Slow and sweet and useless,
But I have a secret,
It's name is fire.

People don't often believe me,
When I tell them I have fire,
How else was I going to live,
If I wasn't singeing some toes?

My mind races like a 5 year old when he sees that he got the Monster Truck he always wanted for his birthday,
I move slow,
But there is my fire,
My mind and my soul.

I am a feminist,
I catch fire to the souls of people who want to burn down,
The forest that shields the wealthy,
But buries the weak.

I want to murder, burn, kill,
If I destroy then I am destroyed,
But the urge is there,
Don't worry I won't I promise.

I listen to Joan Baez singing Battle Hymn of the Old Republic,
It's the only prayer I'll ever sing,
Glory, Glory Hallelujah,
Glory, Glory Hallelujah,
His truth is marching on.

I used to burn paper on the iron stove when I was a kid,
I tried so hard to be a pyromaniac,
But I just didn't find it fun,
I'm such a loser but if you burn magnets they don't stick to your fridge anymore.

I pace back and forth and back and forth,
Why I don't know,
I just feel I have to move,
Or the flames become cinders.

Well it's nighttime,
And if you have a fire like mine,
When you find someone who consumes the fire,
But isn't consumed by it,
You've found it.

I singe a lot of people's toes,
I just hope I haven't singed yours,
Yet.

Dew in a World of Rain

I wake up in the afternoon,
And it's raining.

The day after that,
It's raining.

And the day after that as well.

In a place like this,
Rain is life.

It's not a big deal,
I prefer it to sunshine actually.

Sunlight is that kind of thing,
Where people like it even though they can't say why.

It makes me sick.

I miss the misty morning dew.

Its gentle water in the blue daylight,
Was a promise of better things to come.

Dew was gentle,
Rain is ferocious.

Dew was a hug,
And rain is this carnal lover attacking every inch of your body with burning ferocity.

I mean sometimes you just need a hug.

Sheesh.
