Don't use bad language (if anyone can hear you). Do help it bleed if it penetrated the skin. There is nothing poisonous about it, but some individuals may have a reaction to any puncture. These thorns are straight and stiff, often hidden along the stems by leaves, and will easily penetrate cloth or even leather gloves. They do not cover the stems and are not hooked to grab you, like rose or blackberry thorns, so can be avoided when handling the plant. But any accidental movement, of you or a branch, can give you worse than a poke. Its name translates as Fire Thorn.

If poked by a Pyracantha thorn is it poisonous?

The poison in a Pyracantha is in such tiny amounts that being pricked by a thorn would not cause any problems. The above may be true but I have found on several occasions when pruning our Pyracantha that the almost inevitable pricks by the amazingly sharp thorns will often leave me with a very sore and red finger or arm. This goes away after 2 or 3 days. This is possibly due to the minute amounts of cyanide in the plants.

Pyracantha berries are edible, so you can eat them. I heard people make jelly out of them.

You should be reasonably safe on this one, barring allergies. See links.
