Conflagration
I am only the wood,
and you are everything else.
You are the air that feeds the fire and the wind that stokes it.
You are the combustion, the opening and the process that unites the air and wood.
You are the light and the heat.
You are the Agni, the disintegrator, transforming just wood into the divine.
We are a conflagration...How warm can we be?
and you are everything else.

You are the light and the heat.
You are the Agni, the disintegrator, transforming just wood into the divine.
We are a conflagration...How warm can we be?

This one is deep - love the use of Agni.
Had to look up Conflagration though, what an amazing word and perfect title.

much appreciation. Poetry is a creative force...Agni is destructive...both are transformative. That's the universe! Simultaneously birthing and destroying itself.
