EXPLOSIVE


Beware.

This explosive heart

that I wear

has a danger

of going off

at any instant.

There is a danger

to whoever is around.


There are warning signs.

I may shudder and shake.

My smile could begin to break.

My knees, quake

- but, when you hear the hum,

then, well, I'm almost done.


It is a problem

a curiosity, a danger

and it recurrences are frequent

for my heart can reset

and rearm

and prepare itself

to explode

again and again.


It is volatile.

It is haphazard

but, I am finding the pattern.

The frequency transpires systematically

whenever I come into contact with you.
