Hearts A Fire

A poem about change via the mother of us all and the flame.

-Hearts A Fire-
by
Keaton Foster



The mother of us all
Unkempt
Debris of dreams
Impossible they seem
Waiting around
Looking for a spark
To ignite the flame
A catalyst of change.

Creatures both big and small
Stay hidden away
Afraid not of change
But terrified of the flame
Death meant to be inhumane
For those who stand in the way
For those who refuse the will
Of the mother of us all
Creation via absolute destruction.

Those hiding away will be safe
In their dens and burrows
The flames cannot burn the ground
Only the fuel that is abound
Only the weeds and the stagnant
Stands of forever trees
Who will be ripped clean
They will have to live with the scars
Of all that has been done
By both man and the flame.

Hearts a fire
Burning from the spark
Of change on an unprecedented scale
All that is fuel will be consumed
All that remains will have a chance
To grow straight and true
And to live in a better place
The mother of us all will again live
Life always finds a way to transcend…
