Draft: Immolation

To burn - slowly - in my own fire:
to crumble off all excess&emerge
from this flaming baptism, holy, new.

What is, must -
Patience is passion, like the yoke
is an egg, slippery, beating.

I report to God: my metaphor, my truth
my delusion. Hand me a bible, better yet
read it to me. I am magma. I, magnanimous,
I, frustration, I, breath; me: Life.
