Lighting The Fuse Poem by Kurt Philip Behm

Lighting The Fuse

A Poet is not like other writers …
all narrative be damned

Charging and fusing each word with a spark
redundancy to ban

Poets and Novelists both drawn to the fire
their kindling looks the same

The differences clear when striking a match
— poetic verse rising in flames
