Le Wise Ways: It's ok that you didn't like it, but I don't get where ''these'' come into play? It's the first poem I've posted? Also; my voice is writing whatever comes to me. This is my voice. I might not do it very well, but I don't really plan on changing up the way I write. Thanks for taking the time to read and leaving some words anyways, appreciated. :)

CopyPat: It's different points in time. The first stanza is his childhood/teenage years, the second stanza is when he find his love but taken from her perspective with some input from the main character. The last stanza is himself and who he really is. I basicly wanted to play around the definition of a true pyromaniac and how it gradually takes over his rational thought more and more, but as a poem with some experimental schemes
Since I followed this way of structuring it I tried to leave the hints of where he was at as understandable as possible; The first stanza - toys, smoking a spliff, being a rebel, his mother is around, his mother see there's issues there but does her best nevertheless and they have a chimney. Second stanza - his first real love and she owes a condo, not really childlike to hang out with someone like that so I hoped the reader would understand that it's a different point of time in his life. Guess I didn't do a good enough job. Third stanza - his pyromaniac tendencies reaches its peak as he turns completely nuts, and I tried to convey how the only love he ever really had was fire, despite what everyone around him told him this was the only thing that made sense in his life.
