Analysis of Silent Ashes
a swell in my heart
eyes, ears & heart
within silent pain lights the flame of deeper desire
you unlocked a dream to unfold
She dances on a ring of fire
Yet throws off its challenge with a shrug
how great a poet knows
let the truth be told onto a newer episode
Torn illumination
Cascading briars taunt the inner radiance inside
Satanic demons in the wine you had for supper
Alone in a fever pitched aside
We all seek to run away & hide
from the path of least resistance
join the hands & join the resistance
we are living on borrowed time
A challenge to be free is a question of time !
