This letter 
is a tight knit 
family of embers 
      in my hand
. 
Reading it, like 
looking into  the sun
          sears   holes 
through       retinas
.   
It may be crisp paper
but I'm the one
   being torn to bits
called by gravity
paused, a jumble
.
Coals scorch      as
each   scrawled mark
 digs through skin
when refolded and
moons start 
          to pull
my mind to and fro
   a cycle that'll 
never gloam upon
     a decision.

I always liked fire. It warms, it is making the dark bright and it makes things disappear.

yes. there's just something so comforting and magical about a good fire... i think it calls to things inside us and always will. :)
