The writing prompt at the dVerse Poets Club is Fire.
You started a fire
like never before, and now
you can’t put it out.
Don’t start something that
someone else has to finish.

Terse, provocative little poem. This could be such a good opening line for a novel–maybe a mystery or suspense. Or even/especially romance.

When starting a fire is easy, it probably shouldn’t be started at all.
