I sat by a fire with a notebook tonight.
 
Goodbye, dry brush,
Crumbling at a touch,
Now brittle, once lush,
But just briefly such.
Now flaming to fly
And unite with the sky,
You're no different from I,
No, not very much.

You never will die,
You never were born,
We both keep alive
As you're keeping me warm.
You flow through my future,
Impacting my path,
And my past flows right into
Your ash aftermath.

Goodbye, dry brush.
Making habit of change,
You partake in the rush
Of returning to flame,
Combusting to rise
And to light up my eyes,
You confine your demise
To mere virtue of name.

With no resistance
And with no fear,
Released, swirling into
The vast atmosphere,
The grand stream unbroken,
Ever-shifting form,
Whispers with white smoke
While it's keeping me warm,

Its essence soft-spoken
Through fiery storm.

I would hope someone with a psilocybe mushroom avatar would be more thoughtful.

Apparently there are exceptions.

At least you didn't plagiarize.

Reminded me of Robert Frost.

How did you know that when I get drunk I log into FFR and read random poems in the forum?

I've got a pretty well-developed intuition.

Obviously not. Oh yeah and your sig looks like ****.

Your sig makes you a hypocrite, so blegh.

I don't see the resemblance between my signature and four asterisks, but I will take your word for it, as you are obviously incredibly wise.

Hello darkness, my old friend,
Ive come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence.
