Great Fire

Great fire blazing red
A fierce comet tolls above—
Desist from the west.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Excerpt from The Stygian Lore… This haiku was written by a wealthy merchant who observed a comet from his high tower. He enlisted the help of a stonemason to carve his meditated words onto a stone tablet as a warning to anyone who might think to ignore the impending cascade.
