Over the Ledge

Playing with fire
blissfully unaware
the loaded dice
dance in the hands
of those
whose push
will see me
over the edge.

Sometimes you have to be burned with fire
To learn is better to do not inquire

Broken love.
Fancy flesh.
Driven mad.
Cool and clean.

  I'm thinking of desire
  and playing with fire.
  I'm getting higher and higher.
  The spark of innocence
  is upon me.

Fire
Cried the boy wolf
And as the fool, looked back around
His house had burned down
That's what you get 
When playing with fire

If you play with fire you'll surely get burned Lighting fire to the drapes, attention it earns Not a great idea Leads to diarrhea Fire engines blaring, causes extreme concern

Playing With Fire

Playing with fire

...like night magicians
playing with fire till dawn
needn't tell but crowd
masquerades seeking sources
to revitalize their wands.

Playing With Fire

Creation and destruction
Seeing the animation,
Intimidating cessation
Mankind’s foundation
Youthful fascination
Delivers elation and sedation
Yes even fixation
Even deep temptation
Sometimes cremation
Depending on location

She said, "play with my fire, you may get burned!" He played, he left, she was a woman spurned She started a false rumor In his groin a tumor His love life was done... a hard lesson learned....

Dove

On the sands of time we meet again,
Playing with fire as you melt to me;
Eyes smoke as I crave in your touch.
A wish that smile: to covet and woo?

Ferment a bit, know the truth of love
Enslaved in joys be the loving dove.

Premium Member Worse Than Any Serial Killer

The man who starts a war is playing with fire
He is no better than a killer for hire
His only purpose is to destroy anyone who gets in his way
By Murdering more and more people with each passing day
A massacre to acquire a filthy desire

This Merciless City

In this merciless city,
There is no place for a love so true.
In this merciless city,
It is a crime to love.
Here, love is considered a taboo.

In this merciless city
A teardrop makes up for a desire.
In this merciless city,
Love is playing with fire.

Playing with fire, in time we tire Game of desire foolish Objects that our heart does aspire Are all doomed to perish Stop this thinking disease No demons to appease Be blissful and at ease Down to the wire Playing with fire 22-August-2022 Quietus

Playing With Fire

In the hearth of my Heart there burns a torch,
While a furnace blasts inside my brain
A stove on which my Soul is scorched-
Pyre that kindles in dying flames

No Hell is hotter than my ire-
A searing heat, charring desire
Glowing embers, the blaze I enter
(Nothing more could fuel my fire!)

Pesky Soprano

Female skeeter singing for a favor
wanting my blood for her next caper
she's playing with fire
her future looks dire
joining others on my wallpaper.

Playing With Fire

Playing With Fire

(Unfinished)

Virulent tendrils of aching need

Fanning smoldering desires

Entangled in a burning embrace

Sinewy bodies dancing in place

Consumed by the passions we feed

Longing needs tenderly conspires

Tempestuous intense tensions

Demanding passionate release

When Playing With Fire

Be proud my girl, but be humble. Be strong as well as gentle. Be courageous but never reckless. Do no harm, but take no crap. You are wild and fierce, determined and strong. I don’t aim to tame you, but guide you. To hopefully pass along hard lesson learned. I know all to well what ups and downs this life will bring. A fire burns inside you, ready to set the world on fire, but remember my girl, you too, are part of the world.

PLAYING WITH FIRE


The Christ Child whom we celebrate
Came to save the world from sin
There never was a love so great
But some won't let Christ in

They listen to satan who is a liar
Their destiny has been foretold
They'll spend eternity in a lake of fire
Lest they break old satan's hold

My question raised to you today
Is Heaven your desire?
If not, get on your knees and pray
It's time to stop playing with fire

Playing With Fire

Dancing round
The flickering flames
Skirting the problem
Avoiding the truth
Turning a blind eye
Words left unsaid 
Emotions hidden 
Pretending, evading 
Singeing our finger tips
Heating up and making larger
The space between us
Unable to look me in the eye
A problem that grows 
Fanned and fed by silence 
Till we get burned
And scars are left
It spreads and consumes 
Wild, out of control
So easy to prevent 
Now more difficult to stop

Vicious Desire

In the night time,
we would walk
hand in hand with our fate,
the beats of music,
the sounds of crashing waves,
blending.
Our bodies start to move.
Reckless playing with fire
the game of burning desire.
The clock is ticking,
we are out of time.
Shall we fall in the sin
of never looking back?
The lines are blur.
Breaking dawn is crashing down
upon us.
But we don't stop
and we are caught of crime
of not caring what we lose.

Playing With Fire

Our love was never meant to last, I knew that.
I'm plain and boring, like grass that tickles your bare feet,
But you, you're like a fire that burns in the darkness of the night.
And though I knew we wouldn't last, I needed to try.

Mom always told me never to play with fire,
But I never knew playing with the fire within your heart was just as bad.
And when you left, my heart didn't break, it burned.
And darkness returned to my life.

A Phalange

Your stretched nerves 
move, like a reptile 
in a dance; 
for the evolution of sexuality.

The exodus was a stunt
playing with fire.
I will hide nothing.
I was a cloud within a dot.

Unknowing the fall, I 
seek, the failure, to climb
again on strange words
to find the underlying meaning of pain.

You begin exploring 
the hills after the unexplained 
apartheid, after the bloodbath 
of the golden peacocks.

Concordia

Peace at stake,
it worked.
Withdrawal of rubber dolls
playing with fire.

Empty bowls in lunar month.
Concords were flying very high
noiselessly crossing the peaks
of great grudges.

Pure golden hair –
of grief.
It really was miracle.
Bald eagle was waiting.
Enough time to steer a murder.

The irresistable desire
to rub with a paranoid.
Extracting a genius from mediocre genera.
Life had become too genteel.

Playing With Fire

He was just a boy of five or six he did not mean it, 
 it happened so quick.
But the orange glow in his eyes did shine,
 he felt the same every time.
The fire took control with it's light, 
he had no fear only delight.
Ashes rise in the air the smell of smoke,
 he just stares.
Quietly waits and watches the fun,
 until all the fire is done.
Until next time he thinks in his head, 
he smiles and then goes to bed.

Burn

I knew I was playing with fire when we met, so I couldn't blame you when I got myself burned. 
   You added gasoline to my fire, lighting the match and faning the flames higher, watching them burn brighter.
   And as bright as the sun did I ever burn, to feel her touch, taste her miss, just to hear her laughter one more time.
   In the end, being true to her  beautiful chaotic self, she walked away, leaving a burning desire, and no way to put it out.
