FIRES WHICH BURN
Carelessly spread
are the pine trees
the random brush
entangled with breeze.
Left alone to age
they with lightning burst
then burn so very hot
doing there ultimate worst.
Found to be controlled
as all our desires can be
if only set in sacred order
while agency is still free.
Stacked and cut prime
used efficiently today
this litter of our time
with patience do we pray.
Ice fires or the refiners
the choice is always ours
for the fires will burn
destructive or with powers.
The choice is ours always
but fires which burn hot
will still always be lit
it is just how is forgot.
