How to kiss lightning

rub gasoline on your lips and adorn with metallic glitter

the spark across unfeeling flesh lasts longer than the dopamine

my best friend’s lips taste like gasoline

her boyfriend drank some by accident from a soda can

and everyone regrets it didn’t kill him

I think his stupidity will in a matter of time

her fiery passion and his soulless flesh combine into ball lightning

this burn can cleanse if contained

and kill if set loose

fire is always holy

right?
