Thirst
June 7, 2009
Oh the burning, building flame.
Its beginnings so slight, so subtle, so deceiving.
Pulsating at the core; thick, uncontrolled.
No longer controllable.
Its ecstasy grows, pulsating.
Steady embers surround; smoke screaming.
A final explosion- majestic extraordinaire.
Pulses slow, light folds dark.
Only ash remains.
