Fire on the Mountain
🕑 Added 2017-05-02 20:26:49 +0000 UTC Awoke to the dream exhumedSuffused.
Vignetted in smoke and flames
With no sense of urgency
As all the creatures marveled
The electric explosion
Through cellular screens
from their breakfast tables.
No swiftness towards relief.
Those will come from great distances
To drown out the countryside
Once it's been consumed.
Such is the tragic metaphor;
That all things beautiful
Must burn
While the world watches
With awful anticipation
Til the light dwindles
And the stars smog over.
Resurrect thineselves
In marvelous winged flames.
Lest, be overcome
By the blinding heat of now.
Sing unto your death
With the boldness of knowing
Your skies will be wonderful,
Your ashes are fertile,
You will grow again.
