I still don't understand.
Is your secret sleight of hand?
Let's see.
Go, burn
and I will sear the leaves
and you will sear the roots
and I will watch from afar
and you will bathe in the soot
When all's truth-charred
Or with no regard
Then I'll leave the ashes to sleep in the sun.
But, you
You are not yet done.
Nothing is complete
Until you raise your leg to crush the ashes
And they kiss your feet.
