(6-words stories)
stampede of heat all around us
'keep out' signs done with flames
animals of all kinds, on alert
wicked distortions then begin to appear
maps in our heads, becoming real
concerns about others, cross our minds
common sense facing as catastrophic scales
sight, searching through smoke, for recognitions
gathering goods but fearing for life
sounds of blaze over muted sirens
memories on hold, now's ever pressing
a strained kind of togetherness needed
current mood at affects of circumstance
yearning, as a kind of prayer
scans of the past, flash by
people priorities over personal possessions, lost
there's sighs remembering, having been there . . .
