You are a slow motion fire.
Not, you are ON fire. You ARE the fire.
This isn't some inspirational bullshit. It is an educational post about chemistry.

Yeah, literally. A fun aside - if you wanna take Jesus' words literally, he's oxygen - he says he's "zoe," which is life but also fire.

This reminds me of some lyrics by Blackalicious - Chemical Calisthenics
"Cosmic musical radio-activity
Different points in joints within infinity
Oxygen and hydrogen alive within all types of energy
Within all types of energy
Within all types of energy
Within all types of energy
Within all types of energy, inside a world, inside a world
Inside a universe, inside of me existing although I can't see it"
