The Earth’s Fire
September 10, 2021
Flames engorge the lifeless trees
And ash suffocates the land
The crows refuse to crow
The stench of death arrives
Lost in the smoke it all burns
The earth’s heat erupts abruptly
Pain and suffering longingly lingers
the cries ring out like booming echoes
As the inferno is lit within.

The California fires have sparked a conversation for many different people not just in California but around the country people have rallied around the state to support their efforts on rebuilding and controlling these brush fire outbreaks. Fire's like the ones that occurred in Australia was also the reason I wrote this piece I imagined the fires as a beast eating everything in its path.
