Forest fire
Cross Currents, Spring, 2004
"For whoever does any of these transgressions, even the souls that do them shall be cut off from their people." (Leviticus 18:29)
To run away, to flee, escape; I hold My trembling daughter in my arms and run As fire, pursuing us, cuts off the road While bursts of heat engulf us like a sun. My daughter cries as flames, now crimson red, Flash out and scorch more trees; we try to hide Inside a cavern with a make-shift bed Where she can rest from burning trees outside. I know the truth that she does not yet know: That I ignite these trees each time I sin, That I endanger her each time I go To play with matches games I cannot win. I pray that she won't hate me, but forgive; I pray: may she, my soul, my daughter, live.
