Consume
While the world enflames
and my heart rages,
I consider how to
combat police brutality
sew a mask
eliminate carbon footprints.
But when your hand slides up my leg
and underneath my dress,
I lose focus
and ponder better ways to burn.

A feminine perspective of that which burns but never consumes… Great!
love that last line
