Burned
by the flame of
of his observation

Charred
by the memory
of a final wish

Dark Hours
Shrivelled day,
Mottled charred desires,
Still pursuits,
Dying hope,
Shadowed duty engagement,
We fall and rise still....

Of a young charred girl
Unrecognizable 
Nothing to give her away
Far, far away 
Her family wonders where is she...

Burning Paper
Charred edges
Slowly curl inward,
Like a hand closing into a fist.
Flames bounce
Briefly as they encroach
Upon the last remaining
Shred....

Peril In the Wood
Red fire blazing in the wood;
just charred stumps where trees once stood.
The denizens must flee and run
because the deadly flames have won....

Disbarred
The crooked lawyer was disbarred
When the case he worked on was charred
He sunked so low
When hit with a large blow
Then pulled out his latest trick card...

All burned, charred death
Everywhere, forever gone
Hello I joke, killed lovers

Rest, still

Gazing Alone
On a charred olive-
   branch, a dove gazing alone.
      Gory war wasteland.
         Moist eyes barely holding pain,
            being a sole survivor.

Ah Peace,
You disheveled outcast
Hiding in the heart
Of wingless doves
Shivering in cage-less
Confinement 
Clinging to a charred
Sunrise
Smoldering
In the madness
Of god-less
Gods

The Shadows Are Locked Doors
The shadows are locked doors

Cellars ferment Ages

Wet wisdom drunk

By rats' charred bones

Who can tell you

He is the face

Behind the mirror

Inside your skull

The glass shines

Diamonds...

Tempestuous wildfire is raging; leaves behind charred forests. Humans are careless beasts; camp fires and cigarettes destroy all life. Easily avoided with caution; forests could be saved.

House Fire
Ashes drift
to the ground
like black snow,
and smoke curls
upward from
the rubble like
ghostly figures
emerging from the
grave.
A skeleton now looms
in the clearing,
surrounded by heaps
of its charred flesh....

Premium Member Regrets
Regrets come in shades of gray Browns and blues with falling tears Black and charred, not so gay, Laden with morbid unresponsive fears Like moaning sounds, one often hears.

The Resonance
In blue, 
starry night. 
Who was ephemeral ? 
The shifting sand ?

*

The evil, 
in turbulent waters, 
outlives- 
the flames.

*

Charred, 
earthscape. 
It was becoming an art. 
You have countless abstracts.

I Fire Dance With the Stars
I'm strapped in a charred skin
Preview live cremation
The death of the sun star
To end all creation
I fire dance with the stars
