Your 
              
            chest:

              bark, 

                rings, 

                 heartwood.

                 solid once,

               hollowness 
              unnoticed


              burns
              
            you want

          you      need

        Flip        coins:
      Split       yourself, 
      axe           wielder
      Chug        gasoline, 
       misguided arsonist

        Or remain patient
 Let the flame crackle, steadily
    Breathe. Feel its warmth?
