burning men

©2022 Michael Raven

casting names into empty
runestaves aplenty
turn off the news
turn off the noise
i have seen blood enough
my eyes run crimson
with burning men
aloft

i feel fading...
willows swaying in
burst cloud breath
a queen, a man who
would be king, a 
knave playing monkey
to my mind
