Flakepump

Fire; start her, outsmart her, beckon little taste, tinge of the singe; lead me not, abyss,
Down on your knees, do as you please, hands on, idolator, touch me with worship kiss.
Fan; crackling flames, throw out anonymous names; sacrificed for the cause, all of me,
What is the proper tribute for possession of the ash of what once was or shall never be?
Climb, pyre; rise ever higher, let yon apathetic eyes water in hazy skies, mirror, smoke;
Take massive hit, roll into cigarette, last request after best shot, if you got one, to toke.

To meet a viper, get yourself a sniper; right before the hiss, now don't you miss; defang,
In crosseye, then let it fly; from the hip, blast off the tip, watch it whizz by, go out, bang!
Hunted, hunter; don't be afraid, confront her, nothing is so fearsome as anyone believed,
To stand at the end of apocalyptica for what you held holy, waste no time having grieved.
Enrage, sage; turn page, realize where I slipped was turning the script away from my pen,
Anyone can write bestseller; all you gotta do is compel her at the end, just don't say when.

So off we go to place I already know, home I once left 'cause I thought it bereft; rekeyed,
Kick open the forbidden door just as hard as once before, but this time it's got what I need.
Preserve myself in ice, interior will suffice; it could use tidying, barren space here or there,
But it's nothing that can't be spruced once inhibitions are loosed, opportunities everywhere.
Maybe I'm goin' to Hell or I already know it too well; least it's warm enough, extended stay,
Steamy, dreamy; subtropical seems topical when you've chilled; her advice, applied my way.
