flammable
March 24, 2015
Three syllables
scribed in red
and bolded on a plastic yellow tag
Warning--
A child- cuddled up in fleece by the fire
A woman- masking her golden blonde locks
with creamy black glue
A man- drinking a bottle of forgotton memories
Friends- lighting birthday candles at a vibrant dinner party
The crackling of grease- on a sizzling stovetop
A baby- playing with matches
Ignorant of the fiery potential
And a boy-
carelessly toying with a young girl's heart
Igniting another flame
