The Fire in Life
July 29, 2012
The fire in life
will leap from flames
and sparks of light
spelling out our name
wisps of hair softly entangled
a groundless space
face hidden and mangled
a living taste
of a human thirst
for death beneath us
so skyward we're lured
and we no longer feel worthless
but in this fight
part of a fire
a flame so bright
it will light us, never tire
smoke dancing above us
encircles us more
among stardust, wanderlust
just one more thing to reach for.
