have you ever seen trick candles?
the kind you put on a birthday cake
and ask some poor sod to blow it out
and laugh as he makes his face red from the effort?
cause the candles keep relighting
well for the uninitiated, trick candles work because of the special wick
its loosely bound instead of tightly
so even when u put it out
there is room in the middle of the wick for smouldering
and thus it relights itself
maybe thats the problem with so many of us
we let our exteriors burn so brightly while we dont let our insides burn
if only we would bring the fire inside
where the wind cant blow it
mebbie we would learn not to blow out
now i know about the narrtive plothole
where some young unassuming kid
will come wide eyed to me and ask what if we dump the trick candles in water
well
im not paid to come up with this
so yeah
