Was It For The Love Of The Flame? Poem by RIC BASTASA

Was It For The Love Of The Flame?

Rating: 4.5


attracted by the flame
the moth
flew in there and
got burned

given another life
it will
go there to be
burned again

was it for the love of
the flame

definitely not the love
of life

could be the love of
death

or could be that it is
so stupid
not having learned
the danger of fire

that unforgiving flame
that eats even something
nonsensical
