as the dying flames lick the air
as the forlorn embers glow faint
as the breeze toys with the ash
as the carefree wind caresses the unassuming earth
as the ash sprinkles on the charred earth
as the earth rues the end of its redness
as the end of another cycle approaches
as the smoke gets enmeshed in the mist
as the cold mist spreads envelopes all
the red mist fades away
into the red earth
the transfer of energies
from element to element
a minute tornado rages from one to another
involuntary spasms
quivering eyelids
smoke filled eyes
burning eyes
twitchy lips
lizardy tongue
tingling ears
hair alive
scalp receptive
skin attentive
senses as one
knowledge streaming
mind bending
thoughts shifting
eyes still burning
nose freezing
palms under mud
feet ensconced in boots
toes and fingers one step away from frenzy
nails nonexistent
teeth grinding and chattering alternatively
the red mist
the blue mist
the black mist
the cold mist
all taunting
taking turns
eyes following all
brain ruling all
heart following all
like a slave
the emotions of being
the feelings of confusion
torment
peril
doom
synchrony
magik
monsters
implosions
waiting
the dying flames lick the air
the embers of hope glow faint
the mind toys with the self
the heart caresses the self
balls of fire bounce in frolic
a light of dancing light
stretches the boundaries
of the narrowing mind
the harrowing mind
the drums beat harder
more impatiently
the mists go into a frenzy
