RUSTING

Fire is a spirit, 
crackling vibrations, 
sirring catalyst; 
force and energy 
of the midday sun.

I raced over 
mountains, caressed
hairs of strong 
forests and rolled 
over balling rivers.

But this dour 
fluorescence Is a 
used canister
rusting to dust 
where doting memories
of the midday sun 
lazy along the silver 
line into the 
grove of silence.
