Electricity

Come undone.

 
Off the hinges

Flame singes 


your hair..

  
 Makes you aware
 how close you are

You can taste it
  Waste it.. 


Or use the energy

Synergy

A very clever simple poem..... Reads well.... Especially like how the line

YOUR HAIR.....

Creates a pause a longing.... Before the frantic fast electricity

I've come undone
To miss this one
'Lectricity ?
Come, synergy

Where have I been
To sight unseen
Your poem re
'Lectricity ?

(Nice one PP)
