being the flame,
feeling the light and heat that radiates,
and surer than at any time before
that this is me,
that this is real,
that in this incandescence
is the core of everything
I've ever wished to be
I step more quickly forward
to the heat, I offer my full surface
to the transformation -
whatever is at hand within my day
I give as fuel
so I can see and be
the radiance again.
