An Invitation to Arson (poem)

Press your lips against mine
one touch to ignite a wildfire.
Fueled by the sparks of poetry,
our bodies will form the kindling:
“we” as interlaced/intertwined flames
“us” as embers adrift on the wind
our love: smoke billowing over the horizon
an echo of a scorching radiance –
the glow of a star burning into existence.
