Best Fireball Poems

a yearning of alabaster guilt given birth
from this mouth of words mesmerising
like rings of Saturn, behold encroached
by your retort, cutting if not comic, life
adjacent to corners of some death, you
lit fires with a tongue and let them burn
reeling in oceans, as salamander heads
lined exotic craters...

Here’s a starry poem one might call ekphrastic
about an exploding fireball fantastic
from a ‘nova’, imaged with time-lapse clarity,

engulfs a place in outer space in just a day
as great as where the orbit of...

The sun set like a fireball but invisible
Clouds had the it hidden from view
So the sun won the battle 
Casting the whole western cloudy sky red
Even clouds wrapped to the northeast paled pink
Beauty for humans ~ animals? to behold
Blessings to end the day, excitement at...

fireball friday,
hello

miss you at all

the touch

In order to forcefully produce
A ball of fire
To land upon a man
Wandering alone down a lonely street
Just minding his own business
To be instantly killed

She produced this fire
In order to fulfill a quota
That quota for Halloween
In order for her powers
To...

From their luxury ivory towers,

Quaffing champagne

While we feel the pain,

Because of their bloody tyrannical reign,

Time and...

I sit here 
Writing my poetry, 
A tray of atomic fireballs 
Sit in front of me. 

I put one in my mouth 
It feels like my tongue's on fire, 
Feeling like I walked 
Across a live wire.
