Burn

Smoldering Flames

Licking Skin

Embers Flicker

Hair like rope

Burst

Melting flesh

Shriek

Soul rises

Body dies

That was potent. short but the point is made well very quickly. good job.

Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
