Spontaneous Combustion

Spontaneous combustion–
One day existing lamely,
The next in some construction
Macabre explode insanely.

A normal life unravels,
The sudden moment's mortal
Ignition casts the gavel
With flaming rage immoral.

A ticking bomb awaiting
Beneath the surface, flicking
Abruptly, detonating
So many lives–a sick thing.

The symptoms go unnoticed.
The temperatures are seldom
Surprising say the closest
In contact with these venoms.

Demise is now endemic,
The cases ever rising,
Society's aesthetic 
Is terror-yet-arriving.

No questions, no prevention,
No scrutiny, discussion,
Just ever unrelenting
Spontaneous combustion.
