You've written a sort of loop free verse poem. Very well done, and I like the idea of firing up thoughts and how they grow.

But the flam[e]
dies down as
the fuel dries.

Hi Joan, Good to read your "fire" poem! I liked how you structured your free verse with a "looping" feel from stanza to stanza. I like the theme of the inspiration as fire for the writer.

Comments:
An excellerent the (An accelerant?) and I would use "that" not "the"

"But the flams" (flames)

what a way of putting words on paper. Your poem expresses the way to build a fire. To spark a lighted fire we must begin with someone you can trust. Then we can build/write a poem or write a fictional/non-fictional story.

This meets the Club Challenge beautifully as you deliver a well penned Free Verse on the topic of fire. I really enjoyed your approach of using creative inspiration as a metaphor for fire rather than writing about actual flames. Well done and thank you very much for sharing it.
