Pendulum (Fire Song)
The pendulum swings
Between the sadness
Only rain brings
Turning earth to soaking mess
Before hardening
To shards of ice cracking
Melting under thick flame
Destroying with careless aim
A pot left too long on the stove
In the damp alcove
Ladle balanced on the edge
To keep the flood off the ledge
