Attraction to fire - January 17, 2010

Wonder,
a strange phenomonon
of awe and confusion
curiosity and want
devastatingly possible
credible cause
for action
and further excavation
depth digging
competent comprehension
of the uncaptured why?

Dominant
lady-like taunting
feet dangling by danger
desperately yearning
to set the ripple forth
contaminate the innocent
planting eager possibility
unfolding truth
with inquisition
the what if...
not knowing
needing knowing
just out of reach
propelling

The crossroads - -
a moment
right or right
unsure
nervous
excited by maybe
pleading and pushing
not dwelling
in can't
but marrying must
siezing breath
on the inhalation
gasping for hope

Grabbing at
an unanchored rope
twittering tantrums
linger languidly
anticipating answers
hinged on teh wonder
like a child
discovering hot
for the first time
shiny fire
glows in his eyes
tips to the flame
that moment
before the yelp
desire before consequence

Approaching the yellow
ready to gun green
blow red
to freedom
incapable of arresting fate
the uncompromising humanness
that makes us all
universally wonder
whatever it is worth...
