First there is a spark. When friction converts kinetic energy to thermal. Molecules vibrate at the surface. That spark combusts the air molecules around it, transforming into heat and light. A chemical reaction born from speed faster than sound. When the atoms catch and connect.
When the world feels the flame that is made. When it licks at anything and everything it can touch. For it craves life. It craves to keep burning and burning. And burning. And burning.
