hydrant

I feel this flame
some reddish
kind of desire
this burning passion
within me
ready to burst
if you could
only imagine
pressure   ~   being
so …    so great
yes   ~   building
and building
to the point
where it could blow
the caps
right off a fire hydrant
then freely flowing
like water
on a hot
and humid day
along a city street
that bearer
of temporary relief
amid the struggle
to simply live

I guess …..   you now know
better understand
my need
to artistically create
images   ~   capturing
a moment in time
described poetically
with the flow of words
