Light Me Up

When lightning strikes, it calls to mind
the scintillation that I find
in all those buzz sparks you ignite
the moment you burst into sight.

Your voltage hits me like a brick,
lights me up like a candlestick,
leaves me glowing like the moon,
fries me like the sun in June.

What is this sizzle that you bring?
My head goes POP; my heart goes ZING.
My lips burn red; my blue eyes blaze,
and all the world’s a fiery haze.

You’re smokin’ hot, and that’s no lie,
a rocket booster to the sky.
A first-class hazard, that’s for sure.
{But I ain’t lookin’ for a cure.}
