Hot Sauce

XCVI
Hot Sauce

When once you are older and the
heat of it you welcome into your mouth
relishing the burning fire that tears
into your tongue and devours your throat
the raw spice in keeping with the flames that stain
the cheeks and produce bloodied faces.
Undone, with the sting of mortality.
