Burning Souls

Scalding tears,empty promises,the rejoinder of corruption. Keep away from the fire, fruit tree, bureaucracy don't scratch your pen on the paper. Poison somebody's mind,my village has 800 souls. The murderer boasts again and the fireman goes to an early grave. I snuff a candle,knelt down and prayed, ......as the moon is beginning to wax.
