"I"

Flames!
Leap from calm confines,
Curl and seduce,
Unsuspecting I.

Flames!
Random tongues of innocuous words,
Burn, char and fuse,
Diffused mind's I, in hot embrace.


Flames!
Consume and
reduce to ashes,
My name and my shame.

Flames!
Usher me to my maker
On the plumes of your Fire.
Burn away my I,
Life's most precious Giver.
