I dislike fire
It's blaze and warmth frightens me
But it is an execution dutifully needed
I am the keeper of ashes
Once the bright light of
life, creation, and destruction
incinerates whole, eating it's host
Once the light of the fire fades away
When only blackness lays behind
The leftovers are ashes of what once was
I collect them
And I save them
To remain forevermore
It's blaze and warmth frightens me
But it is an execution dutifully needed
I am the keeper of ashes
Once the bright light of
life, creation, and destruction
incinerates whole, eating it's host
Once the light of the fire fades away
When only blackness lays behind
The leftovers are ashes of what once was
I collect them
And I save them
To remain forevermore
