Your cinquain is really cute! It reminds me of my brother, he always used to talk about how he was going to rule the world someday.
I like how "for transformation" is an atypical prepositional phrase since transformation isn't a physical object.
The last line, too, sounds like something giggled by a malevolent little girl. Or Marjorie. What curious similarities...
I don't know how to take this...other than literally.
Very interesting. I think the only time I have fire in my mouht in when I've been eating Thai chilis.
I liked it.
This cinquain does flow very nicely. And thank you for catching my improper infinitive verb use. :)
Maybe I'm an alcoholic (which I don't think I am), but it seems like there's a very rich subtext to this Cinquain. Am I alone in this?
