Temperature Checks

I don't want to be cool Nor tepid Though warm is different to hot Inadvertently cold Mirrors and smokin' When I'm on fire, nobody is burnt But observation is futile As this is just a feeling Differences of opinion rife I'm who I am in a moment But never tepid

When it comes to talent, you are quite often on fire ! As you say, rarely tepid, that seems to equate to mediocre, and D that just isn't you. An interesting ditty. Well done ( not medium rare, definitely well done). SV

Less of the steaks due to my vegetarianism although I'll accept it :) (although I'm often quoted as being raw in a good way though haha). Thanks for the comment - just felt like writing something quick and this came to mind
