affirmations of an arsonist

burning it all down would save me.  taking the firestarter’s communion of Molotov cocktails and gasoline wine.  no more head down, no more “oh well, what can you do?”.  I can start over, that’s what I can do.  gas station lighters will be my bibles, the little hands of god.  blowtorch epiphanies.  napalm choirs.  immolation resurrection.  thermite baptism.  there is a new cathedral of smoke and inferno every night.  I’ll be your nuclear saint.  look me in the eyes and tell me that a little fire wouldn’t warm me up.  tell me that burning a few bridges and scorching some earth never got anyone anywhere.  you can tell me whatever you want before the flames take me too.
