Poem: Burning Potential

October 19, 2018 at 5:00 am (Poetry)

I was reading Fahrenheit 451, by Ray Bradbury, recently and came across this exchange –

“ ‘Those who don’t build must burn.’

‘It’s as old as history and juvenile delinquents.’

‘So that’s what I am.’

‘There’s some of it in all of us.’”

It sparked this poem, Burning Potential.
