NaPoWriMo Day 19

Fire

Fire, fire -
burning bright
in the corners of the night,
lighting -
lighting the darkness in the land.
Burning, killing – breaking down,
it feeds -
its hunger insatiable.

Fire, fire -
growing bigger,
getting hotter,
the more it feeds,
the more it breathes.

Fire, fire -
bodies burn,
cinder crisp -
buildings crumble,
falling Lego -
windows shatter,
syrup glass -

Fire, fire -
burning bright
in the corners of my mind,
flames
growing higher -
reflecting in my eyes.

Fire, fire -
sing to me,
burning with desire,
I watch the burning -
gas can and lighter at my feet.
