A roaring blaze
                          singes the eyebrows,
                          creating funnels
                          and vortices
                          of swaying flames,

                          A bonfire,
                          reaching skywards
                          in fiery leaps,
                          just as
                          the soul
                          consumed by passion
                          rises
                          to impossible  heights
                          before it turns into
                          wisps of barely sensed
                          smoke.
