Poem

Four Elements are there. In Star's heart and heart's desire Here burns Fire:

Leaping, dancing flames give warmth, give light.
Entice us -- but venture not too close,
For Fire gives death, too, to we who live,
And those who play with Fire are always burned.
Never truly tame, unstoppable once loosed,
Wildfires and atom bombs, lightening and supernovae
Destroy.  But Fire also builds;
Sunfire, starfire, lifefire in our nerves,
And the fire in our hearts,
Our passions: Love, Joy, Loyalty,
Treachery, Hatred, Despair all feed our power.
Its blaze consumes, searing away
All pretense,  leaving truth amidst the ashes.
In crises, it is our hidden strength,
Giving all, unambivalent, holding nothing back.
In brilliance blinds, an inferno,
And in one moment of glory
Fire burns hot.
And burns out.
