A girl made of fire- part 2 to 'A girl made of coal'.

The beautiful girl with
Blistered insides
Smiled black cinder teeth
From cracked ash lips
The coal he had fed her
Remained lit
Inside of her
His hands trembled
As she approached
The smoke ghosts of his
evil intentions
pooled from her nostrils
'Darling you thought you destroyed my voice,
But instead you merely
Set my words on
Fire.'

- Oh how she glowed, she glowed, she glowed.
