touch/don’t touch.

sinandserotonin:

we did not know enough
to realize that where
there is smoke,
there is a fire—

touch her again
and see if it burns

touch him again
and feel your skin sear

against the hot stove
your mother told you
to keep your hands off

brushstroke fingers
against flickering tongues
of lurid crimson flames

but we did not know enough
and no one seems to learn

how some things are not
meant to be touched and
how easily people burn.
