FIRE BENEATH THE WINGS
This fire that burns
Flames so hot
That scares me not
The flames so hot
A fire
Burning
Scorching
Sweltering
Searing
Around my body
Powerful
Controlling
Formidable
Feeling
Yet it is not burning
By body
The flames
Flickering
Dancing
Curling
Swirling
Elevating
Upraising
The flames
Through mind
Body and soul
A peaceful
Serenity
The stillness
Quietness
And the
Calmness
All around
Wings unfurled
Raised to the heavens
Golden, golden
Transparency
Transparently
Eyes fixed
To the sky
Golden stardust
Golden stars
As far as can be seen
Arms outstretched
This body
Transfixed
Mesmerized
Spellbound
Hypnotized
I cannot resist
Desist
Nor will I resist
Or desist
This powerful energy
This fire
Does no harm
Here I stand in
Complete
Composure
Poised
Sang-froid
Cool
Calm
Collected
And at peace
