Kaboom
You say I self-destruct
But
I lost that button
Long ago
When you oh so softly
Lovingly
Tenderly
Ripped it from my chest
So I couldn't use it any more
And it won't be pushed
By anyone
It's in your strongbox
The only safe haven
In the world
And beyond
Though the button in my chest was huge
The hole I expected
Never was
A vanished anomaly
Fictional as a black hole
My sunless eyes
Rain water like fire
Turning the world
The wrong way round it's axis
All I have to do
Is spin it the right way again
