Ignition

You sat inside me
rolled up 
like a blunt 

waiting to be lit
fire is after all a type of ignition

I have a match in my pocket
let's go

    I read this as a kind of internal conflict, or other self which usually lies dormant until the right spark brings that personality to the fore.

      I hadn't conceived if it that way, but it certainly works that way--thank you Kerry!

    I love the "what are you waiting for" feel, and the reassuring reply.
    let the fires begin.

    Hm. The waiting must be the conflict. If this is a conservative type, she'll wait for the right switch!

    Wow, we have some things in common on our blogs today. Pockets and matches.
    I am a huge fan of minimalism. Great piece.

    I see passion here. I also see a "burning desire" for something. Very visual - I love it! :)

    C'mon baby, LIGHT MY FIRE! (How did no one beat me at saying that?) Beautiful poem, Audrey. I felt the passion, the desire to be lit up. :)
