“Raking Ashes”

 
“Raking Ashes”
 
cji
6/22/13
 
Sifting through generations of time
great volcanos and fires untended
modern explosions and negligence
always someone to clean up the mess;
 
Raking ashes throughout all of time
smoothing for new growth to begin
whether it be the rains or the icing
long before the advent of men/women;
 
Yet today ravages of fire consume
as men/women stand idly watching
expecting fire hoses to clean the mess
while constantly playing with the fire;
 
Not always the kind which only burn
but of different kinds to kindle evil
thus giving the raking ashes definition
beyond time and space eternally!
