The past in ashes,
Today in flames,
Tomorrow the kindling,
Just beginning to burn.
Watch the occasional spark
From things thought long forgotten,
But hold to the heat
From today's sizzling flames.
Look for the wood
For tomorrow's blaze,
Don't get too caught
Or today's fire goes out too quick.
Don't fall behind,
Or the ashes, just a flick
Will become ablaze
With smoke too thick
Hold the balance
Between past, present, future
To fiery ashes.
