Flames
Today on the way out towards the panhandle,
I saw smoke out on the horison,
I kept quiet, and didn't babble,
Craned my neck to see, squinting for my vision,
Thought it was maybe a brush fire,
I saw the glorious power of flames,
It was more than my brain could handle, like sharp briar,
Nature and gods certainly were playing no games.
It was beautiful and yet terrifying,
Only about twenty-five minutes ago,
A car transport on the right shoulder, burning,
Flames from inside every car, burning not slow, ...

Grey Amber
The moment I'm around them I hold my breath
Just trying to make the moment last
But no matter how hard I try it always goes too fast
I want to pull them down to my level make them see
The hectic affect they simply have always had on me
Hoping to catch them and put them in amber
Trying to keep that fire burning forever
Just trying to make the moment last
But no matter how hard I try it always goes too fast
I want to pull them down to my level make them see
The hectic affect they simply have always had on me
Hoping to catch them and put them in amber
Trying to keep that fire burning forever

Burned myself on entry to
Your blazing furnace
Burned myself on entry to
Your blazing furnace

Aflame
The single taper now glows
as it once again shows
the dance of loose shadow
this masquerade of night
usurping all of the lit light
just to make its point
with all its dark erudition
against a cheaper rendition
conspire within this funeral pyre
a mere flame by another name
as it once again shows
the dance of loose shadow
this masquerade of night
usurping all of the lit light
just to make its point
with all its dark erudition
against a cheaper rendition
conspire within this funeral pyre
a mere flame by another name

It burns flame
I inhale fumes
Much heat
Scorch brow

Lump pile
Big burn
Heavy lung
Smoke fill
Sulfur spark
Oil dillified

Insects
dance divine insects
from beyond the wind
I went crazy
in the ulterior fire
of nights
full moon
of uncontrollable
rhythm beats
from heart
eyes that feel
the music
pass through
the horizon
from infinity to infinity
dance black insects
in the purple of the morning
wings on fire
in the fire of being
lost hands
on a night flight
(harvest of stars
and fires in
limits of the universe)
absolute wind
of dying lives
labor pains ...
from beyond the wind
I went crazy
in the ulterior fire

full moon

rhythm beats

pass through

in the purple of the morning

eleMENTAL conFINEMENT
After the wind there was an earthquake, but the LORD was not in the earthquake. After the earthquake came a fire, but the LORD was not in the fire. And after the fire came a gentle whisper. When Elijah heard it, he pulled his cloak over his face and went out and stood at the mouth of the cave." 1 Kings 19:11-13 (NIV)

Fire
The memory of you
Is like poking at fire with a stick.
The warmth seeps through me
Like whiskey humming through my soul.
The embers dance in my eyes
Like the spark you left behind,
But it's dying.
I remember when I said
I'd walk through hell
Just to hold your hand,
But now this heart of mine
Flickers like a lonely coal
At the bottom of the pile
Growing cold.
Is like poking at fire with a stick.
The warmth seeps through me
Like whiskey humming through my soul.
The embers dance in my eyes
Like the spark you left behind,
But it's dying.
I remember when I said
I'd walk through hell
Just to hold your hand,
But now this heart of mine
Flickers like a lonely coal
At the bottom of the pile
Growing cold.

The Fire Inside of Me
Fire can sometimes be enjoyable, we tend to love the heat it radiates, for it makes us war. But me, I hate fire. It's too much hear. Fire burns, stings, leaves scorching marks on everything it gets it's greedy hands on. The flames break bonds, they destroy anything it their path. Fire feeds upon oxygen, so every time I breathe it goes for more, just wanting to continue growing. The flames are growing, it's spreading in an uncontrollable manor. The fire that builds inside me is slowly killing me along with my love for everyone else. It burns, stings, and it's getting too hot to handle. You...

Embracing Embers
A man sits, entranced by flame
A dance of fire that he knows by name
From youth, it's held a strange allure
The way it moves, a mystical lure
The orange light, a mesmerizing sight
It flickers and dances, with grace and might
A symphony of fire, he can’t look away
Captivated by this dance, night and day
But in the man's mind, a thought begins to stir
A hint of darkness, a sinister purr
For in the depths of his soul, a secret he bears
One he's kept hidden, through laughter and tears

Blue Hot
Steaming into knowledge
A flame that is blue
I could burn with it forever
That's what I understand, walking in my shoes
Sweating intensely
My hair drenched with smoke
I'm reaching the highest climate
Don't know where else to go
Burning with what I need most
I'll push away the cold
The thought of my heart on auction
With people bidding till I'm sold
I don't mind the fire
It's making me know what's true
I'll let it leave me scars
For it knows just what to do...
I opened my eyes
After...
