On Seeing a Display of Fire Bowls at Wegman's

Here:  Have another bowl
of  fire. Do you take sugar
or salt with that?
Oh, don't worry - those
mitts won't burn, only
singe, a bit;  the napkins,
too.  They think of everything,
don't they? 

Yes, we do have a nice
selection of fires, they're
quite the rage! How about
Promethean Fire (it was a
steal)?  Then, there's Passion's
Fire, but I'd save that
'til later.  Divine Fire? Not
for us rationalists, I'm afraid.

Why don't you try this
Old Flame? It's not quite
so brilliant, but will bring back
memories, for sure.

Now, let's take these bowls
to the front porch,
my dear.
And scorch.
