The Fire

Fire that burns;
Fire it burns,
Heaven and Earth-
The heaven of earth.
The fire I see
Burns the visions;
The fire I see
That burns for reasons.
The tsunami of fire,
The fire of tsunami-
All hurt, 'cause,
Fire! It burns!

So apocalyptic...the fire also burns the inner psyche. The metaphor of fire is the same throughout the world irrespective of temporality... the holocaust is nicely painted. Go on Subhayan...

Touched the flame in this write and got burned. Excellent piece.
