Random fire
Blinded by fire
Consumed by the smoke
Leaving a burn mark
Leaving life broke
The flames that are higher
Touch the dark sky
Remind me of ashes
Flying close by
I cannot escape it
I want to just leave
I’m trapped like an elbow
Stuck in a sleeve.

What a great metaphor for feeling stuck. But it leaves a way out. (K)
