This is a great entry for the 575 fire contest. Your syllable count is correct. Your words are scary and enigmatic which made it a fun read. Great job and thank you for sharing.

Awesome entry, author. The sad part is that the committee will most likely threaten disqualification because they won't make the connection to fire if they don't read the title or author notes. They're idiotic that way sometimes. I love the killer pic you chose. Belisama looks like one nasty, set your ass on fire, beotch. Haha. Best of luck in the contest with this great entry that so few on here will get. Great piece.

Love it! Those scars might not burn, but there's no guarantee they won't get some new burn marks! With all that blazing hot passion! Love the choice of artwork. Perfect depiction of your poem.

What an intriguing photo. It's mesmerizing and so fitting to your sensual words. You say a lot with your 17 syllables. You raise mystery, danger, and hurt love. Your use of "step across" is interesting. I would have expected "surrender", but your word choice implies that there is a boundary to step over. That heightens the mystery of your piece. I like it.
Good luck in the contest. You should do well.

    Thank you so much, Debbie! This is a killer review and you pretty much nailed it. "Step across" is a reference to fidelity. Surrender is also a good word! I appreciate these lovely, lovely comments and your time here. Thanks, again.

No but they very well burn others! This temptress looks a bit scary to me. Your words for this poem are clever and there is much scandal behind these words, love Dolly x

Your Belisama-Celtic Goddess of Fire is beautiful. Your word count is spot on. A nice job in such a short syllable count. I wish you luck in the contest. A great contender.
