Fuel requires oxygen
The ratio is precise
Carbon chains release their bonds
At the ignition price
Heat is not a substance
Heat is energy in transit
Conduction through the solid
Convection through the gas
Combustion theory
Oxidation in the light
Combustion theory
Exothermic by design
Radiation needs no medium
It crosses empty space
Infrared in wavelengths
No particle to trace
The flame is not the fuel
The flame is the reaction zone
Where molecules rearrange
And energy is thrown
Entropy increases
The arrow points one way
You cannot unburn what has burned
You cannot unspend the day
The second law is not a wall
The second law is time
Made visible in smoke and ash
Made audible in rhyme
Combustion theory
Oxidation in the light
Combustion theory
The arrow drawn in fire
Every fire is a clock
Every flame a proof
That time moves
And does not return
