The Fire Burns
Poems
Oct 2016
The Green Fairy
Drip me through your sugar cube
mix me up with water
I am a vigorous spirit
I smell of herbs and black licorice
I have been pursued by the famous
Van Gogh, Gaugin, and Toulouse-Latrec
I have been consumed by Wilde and Hemingway
stimulating greatness
Then one day, forced into the shadows
fluttering in the darkness
still influencing those in authority
but in back alleys and closed parties
But today I am back out front
actors and leaders are my fans
impressive display of fire and water
as I am taken once more with gusto
