how many burns doest it take to learn:
how many brands till third degree burns
the iron is hot, pinstakingly red
all those books you havent read...
the scars are reminders of mistakes in the past,
lessons learned: morals that last
eighth of a second is all it took
everything spinning: absorb what you took
the back of your mind tells you to go:
but the trenches will never be cleansed with fresh snow
