It ravages like the wild Californian fire
Through it leaves a Sahara behind
A heat so intense it boils me down
Plainly unthinkable….
It so defines itself
It peels through like a knife
Layer after layer it goes away
Into the Congo jungles
Deeper on it preys……
Looking for meaning
It sups on denial
And tears in its wake
Seething for understanding
Trying to correct……
What it tries to understand
It smiles out
What a joy it reveals
With every line lies a beat of hope
Warming to the future…
A love to hold on to.
It's everything to me,
Burns like a fire
Peels through my heart
Leaves me in denial
But stills it brings me joy
