🕺Elvis 🔥 Burning Love 🔥

Go tell a hottie friend,

or just a hottie girl —

girl, girl, girl, girl —

I need my Elvis time,

and she’ll understand.

A hottie once said,

“Go right ahead.”

Another —

a Grace Kelly look-a-like,

porcelain skin,

midnight-dark shades,

slips me a twenty —

money for free, sweet honey.

When a hottie girl

hears “Burning Love,”

their minds do blow, ignite —

go crazy.

Flames lick my body,

a slow electric climb.

Brain is flamin’ 🔥 —

a red-hot rocket high in the sky.

K. Clark, Editor-at-Large of Global Worldwide 🌐 — A Literary Artscape Journal

Commentary

Scott L. brings high-octane swagger and neon-lit style to this Vegas-charged micro-scroll. The repetition creates a pulsing rhythm, each stanza building tension like a rising stage cue. What stands out is the confidence — every line owns its space, every beat lands with intentional fire.

The Elvis aura is unmistakable. The voice is playful, sharp, and distinctly Population-5. This entry feels like Scott at full stride: clean pacing, bold metaphors, and a final line that shoots the whole piece upward in a burst of pure performance energy.

Scott L.

Born Blessed in South Korea in 1969 and raised in Baltimore, I’ve built a career with 20 years in customer service and 10 years in behavioral health. The crowning jewel of my studies came when I earned the only passing grade of an A from a Harvard professor — a true master of the craft of Shakespeare

And the English language, whose guidance opened the gateway to worlds of imagination, discipline, and wonder.

Married for 25 years, I share the good life with two dogs (Isabella and Juliet) and one cat named Maddie. In my free time, I enjoy writing, biking, gospel music, and spending time with my pastor and friends.
