"I have seen"

[Ex Tempore XXIV]

I have seen the naked flame inside of me
that illuminates the centre of me,
the flame I carry in the desolate fields
domed by star-studded night.
I have heard the call that resounds
down in the deep of me.
My ambitions are untame creatures.
They drive me on, the ravening of me;
they career like far-flung comets.

M.M. — October MMXII
