Blood and Fire Splendid, brutal rage, intensified fury, Shocked, surprised - malevolent - hysterical When man explodes with the force of deadly bombs - A terrifying sensation, senses stunned. It would be beautiful, if there were no such thing as fear. What strength and power lie behind creation That also force another to wantonly destroy All and everything, without mercy? What passion is there in love, and dreams, That is not there in the cruelty of one to another? Creation - first cousin to destruction, And love - first cousin to hatred and sorrow. No demarcation, no border, but as two bodies Of water, whose currents meet, Creating liquid surges and mocking eddys. As cousins, nodding acquaintances. As cousins, close as blood and fire. |
