December 14 - Flame
Unhinged, mewling beast
Swallows up a burning world
Chews TUMS for relief
Burp. I love this. Destroy worlds, get indigestion.
Board up the windows,
Block the doors; no one escapes;
Cleansing fire sterilizes.
Dark, I love this🖤
Gotta do a wildland firefighter haiku for this one:
Leaping, writhing heat
Climbing up timber skyward
Deploy your shelters!
I love how the middle line rises! So cool.
A crown fire is a firefighter's nightmare...😬
My brother’s a firefighter, I frequently get lectured via text about all things fire.... and my love of candles 😂
Wildland or city firefighter?
I supervise two wildland engines and crews, though I'm not a firefighter myself.
He’s a city firefighter, but his company gets loaned out for wildfires pretty often in the summer, he lives in Utah.
Of all things men grok
We’ll never know that bright name…
One who first brought flame
This is one of my brain’s favorite rabbit holes. Some hominid, not even a modern human, figured that out. Bonkers.
