Fire Dancers

Silhouettes dancing in the fire
Creating blazing sparks that land on my body
And burn into the skin
Dancers inside the wicked wave
Calling my name through the cavernous night
And bending, breaking my nerves
Shadows flowing amidst the flame
Seducing my manipulated mind
And arousing my tender senses
Entities dancing in the scorching light
Devouring my morality, my sympathy, my religion
And enveloping my world
Silhouettes dancing in the fire
And I dance too
