Result:
The poem was not engulfed as much as expected (hoped). This could be due to any number of factors.
The flame bit a jagged, butterfly shape into the paper, obscuring words and creating new meanings in sentences: "Poetics is [...] try this side of the Atlantic," & "glorified acceptence of [.]nes [...] by the front desk". Wafts of 'what's that burning smell?' hit the readers nose, distracting them from the reading at hand. Overall, a rather pretty result, but with quite a disappointing effect on the reading itself.
