It was the flame
Bright blue and orange
It incandescence was illuminating
Like the pitch black reality
Of the drought pervading my skull

The room enlarging
Silent calling of true worry

The very things that beckoned
A welcoming for the droplets
Of rain from my eyes

Before I burned.

And.

Became the fire I was stoking.
