The Poem

Fireflies

Fireflies


Fireflies

You are an anachronism 

before neon lights 

Today's paper

Will not tell

If you have ceased 

your flights

Endless graffiti 

Darkens walls

Warm hay, warm blood

Clay pitchers around well Splintered images

Crowd over pyre

Of the past

Fireflies

Have you ceased 

your flights?
