the light that cleanses also burns!
the torch to wildfire turns
and eats the hand that holds the wood!
it is what’s pure! it is what’s good!
it is what burns away the dark!
the shadows dim and shadows stark
can shelter none from endless light!
it is what’s good! it is what’s right!
it is what takes your tongue and throat
for each and every sunny note!
you are on the pyre you made!
look up, you fool! and be afraid!
