Red Headed Match
Friday, April 17, 2009
With a single red headed match,
I ignite,
burst into flame,
smolder,
burn,
flicker,
die out,
turn to ashes,
fly into the wind,
and settle
on your forehead.
It's ironic that it only takes a single red headed match
for you to notice my presence,
yet, brush me off
back into the wind.
