Pyromaniac

By Mistress Morbid

A flame
Flickers
To the left
And to the right
Like a dancing temptress
Seducing me
Wanting to touch
Her writhing body
I reach out
Touching the tip
Pulling back reluctantly
Then I plunge into the blazing inferno
To be consumed by it's vigor

    Very well done. With a short poem, you must choose every word judiciously, because every inconstancy is magnified. And, here, you did so superbly.

    Fire is to be respected as well as the dead. If you mess with either you should expect the consiquences. The flame controls you, you do not control the fire. Wonderful work.~Necro(Justin)
