Burning
by Henry Burt Stevens
05/15/2005
www.authorsden.com

burning, burning
the flames
appearing everywhere

caused by explosives
by friction among
people heated ignighted

creating a wildfire
worldwide, not
the friendly fire

small enough to
make a cup of tea
or warm some food

but the fire
that wrecks hell
kills men, women, children

now, old fears of
burning dammnation
have been replaced

with pulpit hate
setting war between
the most powerful

and the least powerfull
who use simple
suicide bombs to

interfere with the
extreme most powerful
fire power on earth

burn, burn.
