Blimp

This is more than just
hot air

I am membrane
engorged with oxyhydrogen

and you
are ready flint

Hey guys, thanks for reading and commenting. I wanted to leave a note on your comments just to clarify some choices - good or bad.

@Val. "I am membrane" felt more immediate, more hollow - also graduates the line from simile to metaphor (to my ear) - same reason I didn't say "a ready flint" Doesn't mean my choices were sound

@Duke "spark" has it's appeal for clarity, but it was too difficult to disguise its cliche.

If "flint" was a distraction, I think I'm a little guilty of knowing it might be.
