There are so very many ways to play with fire. <br />Just think of all I could say which would ignite your ire. <br />The possibilities are endless for touching sensibilities. <br />Why should you give me the power to light your touch. <br />Is it my responsibility not to strike the match? <br />Or should you sprinkle a little water on your heartfelt facts. <br />If my ovens not so hot the bread will be half baked. <br />But if I turn the heat right up its cinders I will make. <br />So nice and warm and cuddly won’t cook our daily bread. <br />But flaming rages equally will bake the dough to death. <br />So have some fun when your playing with your inner fire <br />But don’t turn up the heat so much that you ignite my ire.<br /><br />David Taylor<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/baby-don-t-you-light-my-ire/
