I have heard the expression,

"There is a method to my madness," 

but it does not apply to me. 

I claim that my insanity was my birth right; 

in my past lives I earned to plead it for this one

I don't pretend to be "all there,"

nor do I refuse to acknowledge 

that I, with my small frame 

and large presence, spark fires. 

I spark fires with everything I do 

and every place I go. 

Warming fires, signal fires, friendly fires,

and fatal fires. 

I have been told that everything I touch burns,

and I can only hope this is true.
