Wildfire

The leafy hues have burned away.
Only ashes remain.

The hateful flames, conceived by greed
have consumed the proud giants.
The elder wood, twisted with age, are gone;
Their wisdom in flames.

Even the common folk have vanished.
Elm, Oak, Pine, Spruce... Uprooted and burnt.

Neither sapling nor fruit-bearer is spared.
Never to be nurtured. Never to bear.

Fire consumes all;
And leaves only hate.

Our scars are the foundation for what we have become
