Mnemonic ... Flame

Mnemonic ... ni-MON-ik ... something intended to assist the memory, as a verse or formula. (Dictionary.com)

Flame
When true passion finds you,
Of mnemonics there's no need,
To remember all the wherefores,
Of the fire you long to feed.

It will consume you in its heat,
And melt everything away,
Until at last, all that is left,
Is gold made from sodden clay.
