Walking Flames

 perhaps,

 we've all been prying 

into one's futurity a little too severe 

we start to dip our toes 

in mocking flames 

each time 

the evil eye threatens 

to overflow blindly hastening 

to its fatal calamity 

we tend to forget 

what we are is still goddamned alive

 no matter how sore 

our fingers could get 

to uncurl 

and give them back to terra

 the world will always want a drink or two

 -a.
