It's quieter now. Rioters are long gone. For reasonsΒ Β beyond me. Their anarchic war Was replace with arctic winds From far north. Iciness blows through me Unthawing the rawness. Forlorn frozen feelings. Slowly spreading, soon I am a hollow iceberg The world still moves on Through the bright fire And I watch from my frigid state. Sometimes, flames will flicker towards me, Sometimes, they lick my ice. Temporary mealting occur. The memory of water proves too Tempting for ice to ignore. But this chilled bliss is fleeting. Memory turned sour and only to freeze up again And forget about fire so ice retires from contact. All I can do is watch on. Coldness remains in the heart and brain. As the warmth of health carries on around me. It is time like this, That I wait for this age to pass. For climate change to do what it does best However weather has always been unpredictable, And even lava couldn't thaw me free. Instead I will wait for the return of the rioters. and prepare to greet them all and All the choas they bring.
