Recall
Recall
Spontaneous combustion burns rapidly
Exhausted in putrid fumes
In the freest of moments
I burn slow
Warm enough to stave off an ice age and
Bright enough to illuminate the way but
Not enough you’ll need UV protection
I want more freedom than raging flames can consume
I want more freedom than silent tundra’s can hold
A space to rest away from chaos
A space not quite a void
I want the freedom to visit both places without the threat of
Hostile revolt when I come home
I’ll want comfort from the blistering of extremes
An outdoor hot tub in a blizzard
A small fire
A good book and
Therapeutic candles
Not a rushed explosion of passion
Spontaneous non-combustible moments
I’ll be able smile about when they are spontaneously recalled

How many of us really hear each other? How many pretend? How many prefer the sound of our own voice? How many put word before substance? How many mistake words FOR substance? How many...oh, never mind. I suppose it doesn't really matter ultimately anyway. Ready, aim, fire! Oh communication, wherefore art thou? Fled behind the facade of facetious fallacy and flippancy. Sigh. Smigh. Smile. If the truth hurts dress in something more to your liking. Me...I'm just passing through and avoid popularity contests. But then the cup never could contain the ocean. Ears will hear, jeers, only leer.

None of us ever gets anything we don't either need or deserve. Dry those liquid emotions and move on.
