Match lit, the fire flares
down tinder vectors of belief –
The dots connect
as we expect –
motivation, cause/effect
We could be caught up once again,
we all could burn,
or settle for some suffocating blanket,
or in the deeper quiet we could turn
and find a lens to see in clearer ways
The fire within
that needs no fuel,
that burns but never is consumed
can guide us now
and set us free
to shine our radiant truth.
