The flames licked up the terrestrial trash
Engulfing the eternal past
The mighty, haughty idolizers
Of death and misery
Feel the heat in your breath
And curse your infantile idleness
Caress the burns upon your chest
Where you hide incendiary memories
"Try not to wake up on fire!"
That was your admonishment
As I embraced intemperance
We emptied every flask
Talking after class
And left them piled around the pyre
Then you carelessly cast your cigarette
Into the kerosene cabaret darkness
Saying "try not to wake up on fire!"
Hear the incandescent, infernal crack
Of the flaming whip of Sycorax
The revenge you dreamt of now has passed
To ashes it was returned
Every party, every rave
You ruined, you could not behave
Tried to sterilize it with the flame
But only your throat was burned
"Try not to wake up on fire!"
That was your admonishment
As I embraced intemperance
We emptied every flask
Talking after class
And left them piled around the pyre
Then you carelessly cast your cigarette
Into the kerosene cabaret darkness
Saying "try not to wake up on fire!"
Late night drunk texts that I try to forget
Every haunting memory
Expanding, dilating
Drawing me back
To some ashen time
"Try not to wake up on fire!"
That was your admonishment
As I embraced intemperance
We emptied every flask
Talking after class
And left them piled around the pyre
Try not to wake up on fire
Remember that you won't recognize her
You forsook that fleshly empire
Extinguished with the calamity of a cinder
Like, why do I even own a smartphone or a computer?
Maybe the Luddites were right
Maybe this all was a mistake
You know it all was just a mistake
I shouldn't have done this
I shouldn't have done this
You were right
You were right about me
