We Watch You Burn

We watch you burn
Like red primal spirits dancing vigorously to your innate beat
Each spirit conquering the ample stage
Made of a thick block of oak
The spirits dance with more vigor now
Scorching the stage
Powdery black depositing beneath
Sparks gratifying my face
Dancing fearlessly
To the tempo of the crackling
Growing with every swish and swerve
Like a ribbon performance of flames
A valiant swirling inferno
Flaunting its phenomena
The spirits dance madly, uncontrollably
Stage burning, sparks scintillating, heat overwhelming
The spirits dissipate
Your spirits dance too vigorously
We watch you burn out
Watch yourself
