Fire Folk.

By TheProphetUntold

+--+

O' Father!


Fire, summer sky,
smoldering scourge of light.
Oppressor, on high.




Hear me, O' sire!
O' burning blessed blight!
Sink down and die!


Your children ache, and lust to
bathe in the blood of twilight.

...



























Father, Sun.

Be born, be bright!
Renew your wrath, forgive us.
The fire guides us.

    Being I work outside and it being summer in the south I can relate oh too well to the oppressor that is the sun and wanting it to die, lol.

    Lol, I love th cyclical nature of it all. Blessed, like the echo of a sacred yesterday in the profanity of the now.
