Pele Meets Prometheus, By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on FB/META and @brianrrs37 on Twitter)

Mammy Fire
Dwarf Corkscrew
Hibiscus corona color
The acropolis

Wants to meet her
The chimney sweep
Has no chance
Forever the flickers dance

Diamond Head
Plato’s homestead
Nero burned Rome
But left Athens alone

Siva Afi
Across the ocean
Their eyes meet
Kindred kindle

The flint is sparked
The satin floats
The heat of flesh
Their bodies mesh

The monk immolates
Joan tied to the stake
It’s all a protest
They cant resist

White dots
Sparkle at midnight
Emotions crackle
Spectators Orion

Little and big
Neither wear the fig
Two octopi
Intertwined

Oxygen
Fuels them
5 alarms
Smoke detector

Dejected
It’s given up
It knows this pair
Will never stop.
