Ashes to ashes...
"How important is anything that could burn to ash in a few minutes" (Barbara Kingsolver, "La Lacuna) Poetry or prose.
burn
Even steel will burn
twist
Even
Some say fire is a renewal
Cleansing
I say its a symptom of the world
Nothing lasts forever
Though a seed will grow in ash
A hawk will hunt in fire
They have died in fire
In water tanks
Scared
Alone
Or clinging to their children
It razes eveything
Tales have been told in fire
Before a battle
People have huddled from the night
Those have lost everything
A landscape decimated and bare
Fire will create its own weather
Lightning
It all can burn
Farenheit 451
Some people go through fire
And survive
Surviving is what its about
Nazis burned the dead
So many bodies
To be treated like trash
No each one an important soul
Fire will burn everything
Run from fire
While you can
Wrong place wrong time
From ash is life
From fire is life
