Scarlet Ember

Scarlet ember (look , smell, sound, taste, feel) Scarlet--flakes of RUST , SEEN in ashes of burnt coal Scarlet—AROMA of smothered froth of BLACK engine Scarlet—CRACKLES, likes of icy BLUE hailstorm Scarlet—memoirs of BROWN BITTER stones Scarlet—FEET like crispy GOLDEN autumn leaves on ground (rust, seen , aroma, black, crackles, blue, brown, bitter, feet, golden) rusted souls seen inside and out nobody knows where to stand aroma of intensity around black intentions always surround dying, crackling under deep blue sky reaching out to infinity and beyond will somehow become part of brown soil bitter or sweet, everything will be gone used to feel like nothing would ever end even golden memories will turn to embers and stone.
