Accord of the wood, I dance in the cinders...!


Poem Artwork


Warming myself in the midst
of a seasonal death
Little by little, no life will be left...
I step up to the flames ,
My esteems in the fire!
Sparks from me ponder,
my needs’ burning desires!

In the heat of emotion,
the embers becoming!
Where God and Love blaze,
my temptations succumbing...
Accord of the wood,
I dance in the cinders
 God’s terpsichore of lucifers,
casting images that hinder...

Captivation crackles,
In ranting it feeds...
Rale’s of flame kindling,
in Him or the beast?
O’ swinge, in magma of red,
combusting in lust...
Your fires gurgle beneath,
in a scalding of trust!

A poker is stirring,
the holes I am digging...
A dead life feasts on my wants
in the crimson of tricking!
In the bark of my passions,
on the breeze of our Host...
Can I can spit breaths of the lost
 as my green wood smokes...?

Adrift in the twist,
A smoke blown in my face
Blushed in alight, my ravages abase
Arc of His light, 
ignite reflections afresh
My Love is In Him ,
rather than,
the incinerators of flesh!

Musing in the Fires of Flesh burns with poetic oxygen which feeds the den with these spiritual embers...has a flaming correlation to Tarot by Sage, the Firewalk card posted in my den and at Tarot by Sage where all 28 cards are posted, the religious ceremony of the Hindu religious firewalk and the Fiji paid stage performance firewalk, also has a temptation connection to my Devil's Rope Tarot by Sage card...the first paragraph, to me, indicates fasting from passion of the flesh and kindling spiritual passion and the last paragraph confirms it...a passion of religious imagery write on the upper tier of the spiritual ladder, Kimmy...

How beautifully written, Kim - those temptations that befall us. A great read of words and beat...a crescendo through to the finale.
