Inferno
The anger is welcomed
when I can not feel
One foot in front
of the other
Feel my blood boil
A spark of light
Transforming
my eyes
I am an inferno
blazing my own path
I will not apologize
walking over ash
Your smiles didn't work
The politeness
Overlooked
Take away your comfort
Your lies didn't work
I will burn you down
Be sure to watch
your step when I
am on on fire.
Carless
Brutal
Reckless
You see my inferno
cannot be undone
When you hear my
flames crack
you should run
One foot in
front of the other
Away from me
Cause I'm an inferno
blazing my own path
I will not apologize
walking over ash
when I can not feel
One foot in front
of the other
Feel my blood boil
A spark of light
Transforming
my eyes
I am an inferno
blazing my own path
I will not apologize
walking over ash
Your smiles didn't work
The politeness
Overlooked
Take away your comfort
Your lies didn't work
I will burn you down
Be sure to watch
your step when I
am on on fire.
Carless

Reckless
You see my inferno
cannot be undone
When you hear my
flames crack
you should run
One foot in
front of the other
Away from me
Cause I'm an inferno
blazing my own path
I will not apologize
walking over ash

I was pissed when I wrote this. One of my very first poems
The temptation to edit was killing me. But I held back.
Nice to read something uncomplicated.

I was listening to a psychologist talking about rage. How it's a response to a threat to the well-being, if not the very existence of the subject.
Elements I like: the rage is welcome; walking over ash; the sound of cracking; advancing fire.
What is the future of fire?

That you need to burn it down first.
New growth comes afterwards.
Almost like a cleansing.

It's a scorcher! Reads even better second time round! Again, songwriting potential on display here or simply read as a stand-alone rant, screaming at the top of your lungs!

Yeah with me it's Status Quo who were UK headbangers in their younger days, lol.
Has anyone said yet, "Adelphina's on fire with her latest offering!" Lol.

Ha!!
Not yet. You are the first.

Thanks for the music lead.

You won't be disappointed. If you like to shake your head violently from time to time, they are the band for you, ok? They sound better after a few drinks also. I don't know why, they just do!
