            stand back

            by windy niebler

            flashes,
            charges, bolts,
            volts
            and wattage
            jumping,
            crackling,
            barely contained.
            passion is a poison,
            a slow boat through hell.

            don't touch;
            I sizzle.
            you will learn;
            i will fry your flesh
            and melt your bones
            and like so much tinder
            you will burn.
