Poem #2

I  have been struggling with creating the poems.   For me writing a poem has to be more immediate.  I have found that if I journal, the idea disapears once it is in writing.  I'm hoping to go back to finish the thoughts.  I'm hoping they become clearer with my experience both in life and as a poet.
I decided to give this a quick try with out brainstorming.   Let me know if you can figure out what I'm talking about.



The air is crisp
The color has changed
Tinder is afoot
Phosphorus across the board
Chemical change occurs
Oxygen supplied
It breaths, it eats, it lives!
The hunt begins
Searching, stalking… discovery
Confectionery delight
Culinary imperfection
Heat application
Caramelization, ignition
Extinguish to perfection

What do you think?
