A Spark of Life
That night, in the park, it started with a spark,
It lurked in the trees and swallowed the dark.
Like a serpent, it slithered, racing to and fro,
When it hit the apartment, the chaos would grow!
Trapped! Some of them jumped, while the rest of them fried,
I could hear the screams of the people inside.
Raging death would rage higher, a funeral pyre,
All swimming in vain, in a cauldron of fire!
It was as if...Madness!, was calling my name,
Remains were ablaze, a spectacle of flame.
I stood in horror, as such horror would unfold,
I called out to God, but God put me on hold!
