Fire Dance - Konotomon

By Tagen

Tendrils scorched
To clean curses
Avarice reverses
...Humbled & denied


Images flicker
So faint, but trigger
(Empty lies I've bled).
I feel
The warmth of an open fire
Lucy is an empty pyre

-Shaking tent.

//Red river, blood

Dancing with Satan through the flood

Smoke-etched walls

A FORBIDDEN EMPIRE

----------------------------------------

Enter:
A moment of clarity within this confusion!

The flicker dies,
And I hear
Sirens.
The girl next door.

Two more minds
Added
To this confusion

My disgust and distrust
