Burn

Burn bright now what fuel you have.
Steal light from a golden calve.

Gaze in mirrors. Worship that.
Shrine yourself in silver flat.

Open eyes & love what’s there.
See behind them? Burning glare?

Waste not time on what is not.
Feel your warmth grow burning hot.

Spare no oil for gods or men.
Keep what fuels you safe within.

For ourselves we must hold space.
Leave room for your shadow’s pace.

Burn so bright til all’s aflame.
Burn away all trace of shame.

Burn it down & salt the earth.
Know your name & know its worth.

I see the world through a Painter’s eyes and process it with a Poet's Heart....it's quite a harsh place for the soul. It scratches and wears your true self down, at times, but the Beauty is Addictive. I feel for everyone I encounter. Everyone I encounter is a teacher if I'll let them be. I Empathize with everyone I talk to & I Think about Everything-LEVi
