Fire Flood

I'm meteoric,
blazing,
eager to consume.

Full green flame,
solar tongues flashing
with every stride.

They all know it,
see it in my eyes.
I'm in heat:
I could shred you with a smile.

Swollen,
a river bursting
it's thirsty banks:
you can smell it,
mud and magnolia.

Swept away by my tide,
shivering and spent,
in early morning light
see my breath steam.

Feel your flesh prickle,
think of cool fingertips
sparking green bolts
flowing down your back.

Evoke hungry response,
drown you in molten fire.
