Smoldering…

Smoldering…

Some things don’t blaze.
How better it was
to be blazed and get finished
than to be smoldered gradually
– who knows it better than…

Though not addicted I’m
of smoking,
I light the cigarette
with the lighter of
my desire to end something.
A cigarette smolders.

A cigarette and me
in one frame.

What all
can you see smoldering?
