I saw 'em dancing like flames

by Bradd Howard

sparks jump and spiral into the sky.
smoke signals and screen
illuminating faces and hands and teeth
bonfire madness and fireplace dreams
dancing although sometimes the rhythm is a little too hot
the flames too high
Collapsing into burning embers
and smoldering in exhaustion
... our heat too much.

Nicely done, Bradd. All you need is a drummer to play the symbols and this is awesome :)
