Caught on Fire

I stand on the bridge.
It is thundering madly in my brain.
It is thundering madly- down comes the rain.
I laugh towards the heavens.

The bridge is wood and fragile.
The bridge is wood and fragile in the midnight skies,
Into the air the smoke does rise.
I am burning it with my feet planted on the wood.

The fire burns engrosses me,
The fire burns me to a crisp,
My watch melts off my wrist,
My clothes inflame.

What can I say,
I like to burn my bridge's.

Please tell me what you think

    If it's your own bridge to burn, you are surely more than welcome to limit points of access and make yourself your own little island of sorts. Of course, as you say, maybe there are times we've stood to close to the flames while those bridges burn. Interesting poem, and makes me think about it in several different ways.

    While reading this I got a song in my head, maybe you've heard it...Broken Bridges from the movie with the same name. Some bridges are better to burn, and some you just have to cross and move on.
