leaves fire, that's what they say

Easy
to say what
something is:

beautiful,
hypothetical,
completely impossible;

that's how I'd describe you.

Fanciful,
problematical,
slightly intolerable;

all aspects which make you
irresistible, lovable-
totally unavoidable.

Someday (but not soon)
I'll quit this
on a lark-

easy,
_____you'll see.

***

(in the south of the province)

"He leaves fire", they say,
"watch that boy;
all consuming,
voracious-
he'll burn you alive.

Lit up like
a torch, he cuts
a wide swath,"

they say,
_______"easy."
