Alternating consciousness
26 August 2025

You breathed me
a touch of sulphur
weaving through
Pervading
flames of a thousand dragons
senses confusing

Diffusing
my vein opens bright
shining thread
pulse they dread
through the burning light it sheds
as dark, soft it weds

I stir thoughts
Regrets woven through
actions stalled
moves recalled 
hounding measures of closures
acid composures

Yesterday
I conquered kingdoms
My breath lit
jawlines’ grit
shores forsaking redemption
fire-bred assumption

I drew you
within my shadows
Tall erect
lines inflect
the courses of your lifetimes
through my soaring rhymes

We bore weight
of lessons to learn
praise to earn
memoirs churn
Alternating consciousness
wiping out distress

Reading of the poem:

Queen of Fire – Ember’s Song
