Fireball
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 of timely eruptions
yet honey melts heaven in a single kiss

Global Fireball
No more war
We don't it anymore,
To many kids have died
Too many mums and dad's have cried,
For no real cause
Except power, greed and control,
To tighten their hold
Over all that they've destroyed,
From their luxury ivory towers,
Quaffing champagne
While we feel the pain,
Because of their bloody tyrannical reign,
Time and time again
They submit us to the same,
Violence again and again
Innocent

Atomic Fireball
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.

Stellar Fireball
Here’s a starry poem one might call ekphrastic
about an exploding fireball fantastic
from a ‘nova’, imaged with time-lapse clarity,
all the more remarkable for the rarity
of tracking its expansion– which researchers say
engulfs a place in outer space in just a day
as great as where the orbit of our Earth holds its sway,
at a distance of fifteen thousand

The Aftermath of Fireball Friday
fireball friday,
hello
you know i did not
miss you at all
the cool air freezes
my eyes favorably
foggy
i relax inside the
zonule of aftermath
paradise
with green tea
ginger ale in hand
and carelessness
concrete in stature,
i start the hose and
retire that fireball
that is merciless to
the touch
i cut on some roy
orbison because i
happen to dig the
man
after that, me,
mitch, and jenny
will take a ride to
the havana

Witch's Fireball
She pulls back her arm
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
By a fireball
She produced this fire
In order to fulfill a quota
That quota for Halloween
In order for her powers
To be complete
Forcefully she throws these fireballs
To gather men’s souls
And contort

The Sun Set Fireball Red
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 God's paintbrush
Thank you God for your love and bounty
