Fireflies

by @mk-ulton

Heavy with dew the branches converge And when it is night these creatures emerge With diligence they saunter through crevices of flesh And feed upon bewilderment wherever it’s left While the moon jeers at the sun for attempting to hide Hymns of laughter and silhouettes of creatures collide They flourish the sky with a euphoric light And cast a spell amongst the silence of night The creatures thrash against skin to announce their goodbyes But what shall we call them? We shall call them fireflies
