do you think it would work to splash red in a pox deck for bolts or something

I dont think so. If you play bolts, then you have to give up something, like some discard. And all cards in pox are good. There are no cards you relly feel like giving up. The mana base are a problem too. Using sulfurous springs cost lives.
What pox lacks is not damage sources, but enchantment/artifact removal. Red can take out artifacts, but the main problem are usually enchantments.
So, if you want to splash, I think it should be white. This is in fact very interresting! You already play scrublands and balance, so why not add caves of koilos for some vindicate or/and gerrards verdict? The deck would be more versatile, but more shaky in its manabase + price of progress (maybe bloodmoon) becomes a major problem.
