camp fires and the ashes they leave

By eidos







when we met, you decided that the inside of my chest
had a vacancy sign and set up camp.
now there's a fire still burning
only all parties have left the area.
I guess some people never learned
how to leave things as they found them.

    Very cool sir, the fire burns in us all but it catches some of us in the heart and others in the ass.
