Premium Member California Fires - 2025
My heart is breaking as the fire wins, An elemental only doing What its nature demands: Eat, heat, repeat. Some spirits walk on As the fire fights Any efforts to defy its nature. We count, one by one, those escorted by fire To the edge of understanding: bitter taste of pain on one side, On the other, wholly unimaginable to us. Holy. And unimaginable. We are slow to...

Rime fires Edge Inspired by Rime of the Ancient Mariner
The albatross, a frozen, spectral wing, Hangs heavy 'cross the sky, no solace it can bring. A ship of bones, on seas of liquid lead, Where cursed winds howl, and ancient horrors spread. The mariner's gaze, a hollow, burning stare, Reflects the ice, and whispers of despair. The serpent coils, beneath the frosted wave, A living shadow, from a watery grave. The moon,...

Premium Member The Fires of Commitment Burning
Consecration of all I do; Mindful of whom I’m subject to. It’s in devotion, not earning. The fires of commitment burning. Holy Spirit, a living flame, Raised Christ from the dead, unrestrained. Palpitations of heart, yearning. The fires of commitment burning. Born again by the same power. Seated in heavenly bower. With sanctification, learning; The fires of commitment burning. With intention to act rightly, Bride of Christ, lamp...

Premium Member California's Tragedy Exposed As The Fires Burn On
They love creating chaos that's their plan. Look at the wild fires out West, here we go again! Devastating families with no end in sight. Canceling their fire insurance, as their homes burn bright! No water in the fire hydrants, can you imagine that? The Controllers planned it that way, such an evil act! Chaos they love and they love to...

Premium Member Ashes, Ashes
Ashes, Ashes, Flames all around And remnants of our lives are scattered Upon the crackling, smoking ground. Our hopes and dreams buried in the rumble, Lost are the things that we thought measured our lives. Nothing left but our memories. It cuts like a knife. We trusted our treasure, our futures, our dreams Into the hands of a criminal who is...

Premium Member The Fires
The Fires Miracle Man 1/9/2025 After every catastrophy we investigate, seeking individuals in charge to castigate. It doesn’t matter the person's position or name, satisfaction always comes from merely placing blame. Blame will always come first, then second, finding the cause, relentlessly we attack seemingly without pause. We do our duty singing another verse of blues, without taking one step in the other person’s shoes. ...

The night they know is bright as day
There’s children growing up that believe the stars sound like crickets chirping, for their only exposure to these sources of wonder are through over-exposure to blue light and radio waves and soundtracks overlaying simulations. The night they know is bright as day, lit by “satellite internet constellations” or fogged out by the price of progress. They don’t understand what it is to stare upwards and...

Fires
The fires are gone, but yet I burn. I burn with memories of screams and smells. I burn with anger and love. I burn so hot my heart aches, but the tears won’t come. They are too busy trying to smother the flames within - flames only peace can end. ...
