Aspiring
I hide my flame amongst the embers, slowly burning there
a little light remains as assssh, fuming gasssseoussss screams
a waft of smoke ascends from where, my little light does flare
to lurch in shadows on the wall and burst to sparks that sigh;
my lowly ember flickering flame may be all my fire seems
to dance with stars in the night, is what my fire dreams ...
