What is ice but fire bereft?
On the circumference of warmth
Tantilized by it’s own invitation?
Time is consumed by the fire—life.

Fire is resonant like a tone
Transparent as the color orange
The dreams of a species are locked
In it’s crescent labia licking

The fire in the screen consumes
And listens like a shrink
Directing back your fantasies
All scorched and longing.
