"The Fire"by Ryan Holman
The fire inside
Becomes an inferno
That only the strongest can abide.
And even if it strikes
At the worst possible time
It calls whether or not she likes
And once it has hit
No matter the cost
Like it or not, it is lit.
The compulsion to write
Becomes hard to resist
Even if the words end very trite.
In the end no repose
As the words become right
A poem, or even some prose.
