A fire atop the tower
-----------------------------
Utter those magical screams at our souls,
Echoes of it knocking around the walls.
A towering monument to pretend
You can die away easily without
Saying bye to the rest of them left here.
Whisper of the hand to push you over
Is just another of those satanic
Days, filled with love seeking its sacrifice.
Let your hair fly in your face with the gust
Of gutsy air daring to touch dreams.
Like a dog returns to the dry death’s place
Of an offspring lost, your memory comes
To haunt the delicate spot where it hurts.
The tower lightens itself with the fire
Of eyes and a distant sunset… blue dies.
You step down amid another life’s days.

clever talks delay friendship!

Impressive lines, dear Ku! Always highly intriguing imagery that unveils all its different hues with every new read.

You are very good!
