THE AUTODAFE

Published in Nature's Echoes-USA-Library of Congress-isbn:1-58235-564-9

Selected semi-finalist in the North American Open Poetry Contest-2000

 

 

I throw some wood in your eyes
with a clap of my tongue
the spark ignites

The autodafe
of our bizarre love story
warms for a while the cold winter night
in your egocentric thoughts

The countless years
stand their back against the time board
seeking refuge from the witch hunt
that is burning,in the same fiery leap
the pages of my futures, one by one..

Now is time
To live,
without you.
