cooking

Two burners on our oven work. One of them, the front one, gives a smaller flame that, when placing a pot of water over it, takes its time in producing the sweet, succulent chaos that is boiling liquid. You migth say it's a bit more subtle. It creeps up and falls back, makes you question the existence and passage of time. But once you look away...
The back flame roars with in-your-face heat and relentlessly drives your liquid gold, whatever it may be, to that precious state of boil. Overtly it rallies all behind it and charges straight forth to lick and dance beneath the smooth steel curvatures.
Both flames reach the goal. It's merely a difference of time.
