ON FIRE

I'm on fire


now I know what I want to say

and have said it

to the unresponsive void

that hears or not


a whole life misspent

and never knowing its worth

and now late (too late?) in the game

I wake up to my live spark in an ashen world


if one cannot hear one cannot listen

and if I cannot listen one cannot hear

we all hear only what we want to hear

and consequence will determine who was stamped out


and who remains on fire....
