Curiosity

Curiosity is the spark 
that ignites
as the match strikes;
Producing a blaze
that burns deep within the heart
of a man so wanting to unleash
the ardor which resides inside 
that blue flammable beauty.
To vehemently hunt down truth,
soon cajoles and entices
even the tiniest flying moth;
Eventually leading it 
to its wretched saccharine ending.
