SPARK OF LOVE
UC Poika
What a fire a single spark can set
Miles of charred timber smoldering yet
Breezes that gust to dangerously high rates
Gossip driven by the likes of insane debates
Devils laughing because they drink his brew
Lunacy turns first against one kind then two
Then gripping a burnt bunny he sobs alone
Realizing exactly what he has done
Rope tied about his neck he hangs himself
Rabbit still there upon his highest shelf
Suicide note explains away all he’s loved
Dirty with soot it induces his heart to be moved;
Hatred may have set the fire but then
Remorse is yet perhaps the greater killer of men.
