Curse this heart of coal! Ever burning— ever consuming itself from within:- Author and finisher of its own distraction. Why did the fire choose me? Did it not know that I am a heart of coal? — and the more it uses me for who I am, the more I die by what I am. Curse this heart of coal.

HEART OF COAL
Curse this heart of coal! Ever burning— ever consuming itself from within:- Author and finisher of its own distraction. Why did the fire choose me? Did it not know that I am a heart of coal? — and the more it uses me for who I am, the more I die by what I am. Curse this heart of coal.
