Arson Noir

An affectatious arsonist announced, “Big buildings’ burning brilliance brightens best!” casually cites conflagration counts, darkly deals destruction, designer-dressed. Extinguishing each edifice enflamed, first-rate forensic findings frequent failed. Grievous, grim goings, ‘geniously gamed; Hurried happenings, hastily high-tailed. Incendiary incidents ignite jewel-filled junkets, jazzed jalopy jaunts. Kindling’s kittling kiss: knave’s known kryptonite, Lapping, leaping licks, luscious, lit lavants. Madness! Marauding mercilessly more, Nefarious, nursing next novel noir. ————— kittle - birth, excitement lavant - old English, stream

A sonnet? I would have labelled this one ABC poem, and they are difficult to do! This is outstanding Jeff.
