Inferno

Where’s the blaze
Fiery orange with a reddish core
Ignited by one little stray spark
Insatiable in its fury!

Voraciously hungry, feeding on deadwood
And anything that comes your way
Fiery virago
Why are you so quiet?

Crackling tinder, rising ash
Fumes leaping high
My face aflame with an orange glow
As I watch from afar

Flaming inferno
Don’t you dare die!

From the ashes of dead beliefs
And wrinkled ideas
The ground fertile
Sprouts new life.
