Flammable Spirit: A Plea

O Eternal

God, within

this temporal

on-loan skin,

buried within

this heart,

interred there

forever: please,

come alive

like fire.

Combust. Burn.

Flammable Spirit,

light up

the world

with radiance

and beauty

right here.

Surge like

beautiful electricity

through me

and create

glistening sparks

from this

ready-to-burn,

yielded life.

Amen. Amen.
