No bright match,
no bold bonfire,
I am not a flash hot heat.
No fall leaf
burst to shock the senses,
no soft wood
wild fire burn.
I am heartwood
slow turn to ember
and hot coal
under your fingertips.
I am expanding energy
and deepening temperature.
My passion does not burn through and out,
but ever slowly deeper
with a heat
that could warm a man
for a lifetime.
I am not
forest fires
and lightening strikes.
I am core earth
Lava.
Tides rising,
I crack the ground
and turn to steam the hot insistent
licking of the ocean.
Do not be deceived
by the low delicate blue flame
that barely lifts from my skin.
I will mark you,
brand your heart.
My life is consumed,
not merely endured.
