Sparks FlyA Poem by Erin Kateri
The black smoke ascends
And dyes the orange sky Like tar I stand in the midst of the Cold, cold heat And watch in horror as the limbs fall Sparks fly, Singe a hole straight through my chest, But I'll be okay... I'll be okay They splash out the fire Their job is done And my world is stained with the stench of death As they carry each victim out alive And blinded by the flames, Swear to me no one was hurt. © 2013 Erin Kateri |
