I Want to Be Fire.
tremendous flames dance their rehearsed salsa
  waltz in the carbon they call home
 almost a breeding ground for exploding energy
 uncontrolled emotion
 though, the barbaric force
  commits acts far worse than homicide
  instead it murders without reason
 for it’s victim has done no crime
 committed no atrocity 
 instead
  cursed with quality of chance
 fire is by far the most ignorant of creatures
  for it does not fancy the act of thought
 does not contemplate it’s un negotiable force
 instead, it commits something without reason
 without comprehension of any sort
 it’s careless ways
  negligent mindset
 are almost a beacon of hope
  an area of desire for us overly-complicated
 far too twisted
  messed up animals
 for fire does not feel pity when murdering
 fire is never oppressed
  feel anguish
  never tortured by guilt
 fire is a sign of freedom
  a signal of something independent
 Soaring through oppression
 Defeating the beliefs we all dissect
 
 I wish to be like fire.
