The fuel jetted condenses frostwrite something using this title
Cold Fire: Strange Flames
a match burns twice
to him the flames
don't match his pain
it's cold as it melts the flesh
on his arm
strange smell of his own roasting meat
repeat until the box is done
pox marked scars dot
he feels more
he feels less
he burns ice
the price he paid
for his parent's vice
roll a dice for the next burn
The fuel jetted condenses frost
burn down my spine with central
heat sparked an arc between lips
and flesh to ignite ice blue
flames licked across tinder too long
dry to melt and extinguish the fiery
agony that soothes with passage
as it consumes what stands beside it.
this one of those diminishing hexathingies, right? loving 'a quiet hunger', and the sense of her keeping it hidden from general view. Contrasts nicely with those end lines. kickerCold Fire: Strange Flames
She had a passion,
a quiet hunger,
that she fed with as
little emotion
as was possible,
Not that you would
have ever guessed,
she wore it well,
stoic façade,
And no one
ever knew,
not a soul,
About
how she
Burned.
forced to sleep,
this cold fire
sleepwalks, dreams...
Cold Fire: Strange Flames
Supposed to chase boys
Not attracted to girls
For some it annoys
Controversy swirls
Aloof and driven
Knows just what she wants
Those names she's given
They don't even smart
To obtain her degree
She'd jump in cold fire
Knowledge sets her free
Consumed by strange flames
thanks for joining in this mini-challenge, dogwatch interesting twist.
The fuel jetted subject condenses verb frost
burn down my spine (and when mixed) with central
heat (these) sparked an arc (static electricity) between lips
and flesh to ignite ice blue
flames (that) lick across tinder too long
dry to melt and extinguish the fiery
agony that soothes with passage
as they (the flames) consume what stands too close.
I'm pretty much talking about a natural gas or propane burner flame... It looks cold but when it's that colour is actually intensely hot. As well, natural gas and propane are compressed and quite cold when they expand (conservation of energy) so that's the frost and burn that I am trying to capture. And I don't know if you've ever experienced any kind of heat therapy but the effects linger and do soothe pain for a while afterwards. The melt and extinguish is a reference to wood that's got a bit of snow and ice stuck to it so that when it's tossed onto a fire, will produce enough moisture to at least cool some coals or with a fire that's not established, could put it out.
I hope the notes help somewhat and thanks for giving me some great feedback toward an edit.

Tess, thanks a lot for enlightening me and not shooting me down in flames and that's quite enough dreadful punning

Not that you would
By duty prompted,
Or that you wouldn't
If so inclined,
Gray silence cools you down.
No urgent need
Nor creeping doubt,
A perfect set
To warm your heart's,
Every sufficient tomorrow.
