Anthem

* this is the spirit of my blog, which, in spite of my best efforts, it may fail to live up to in large parts. Every journey, though, has to start somewhere. So I would still request that you read the work, which is available under the three categories ‘Fiction, Non-Fiction, and Verse‘ and make your own judgement.  You could rate the work you read and/or, even better, leave your comments at the bottom of each post. The fourth category ‘Nothing Personal, But…‘ chronicles the little hiccups that make my life. I appreciate you taking the time and thank you from the very bottom of my heart. Good Day!

I am the flame
that liberates your soul
when the body dies,
fights the darkness inside.

I am the flame
that lives forever in your eyes,
ignites your desires,
breaths only to be alive.

I am the flame
that incinerates vice,
devours lies, creates when
it destroys, bless conjugal ties.

I am the flame
that lights the forest in
your mind, burns down the walls
that divide, sanctifies life.

Light a fire tonight,
and you’ll see
I’ll be the first flame
that reaches for the sky,
the last one to die.
