steered again towards
the flame,
moth halts
then turns to
fly away,
forest’s brightest pyres leave
a bone-deep char on
tips of wings,
and a hint of
nicotine infuses
skin,
drawn towards
another
flame-
but moth’s grown
bored of the
game.
++++
on search for hotter way
to feel twilight’s
sizzle,
moth carves out a space in
silence and curls
up in the
middle.
pardon the interruption. 😉
