Planets
We waited for witches to come flying cross the red sky
We hid our faces, for sparks fell with the water on this cruel night
We lit our lanterns and ran in terror to the forest at the first sight
Of the lights
The clouds were full of flashes and distant sounds of stolen voice
The dark stretched out around us as our flames asphyxiated on this cruel night
We waded through the lightless with a hope for rise of sun or glimpse of moonlight
Oh it’s bright
there upon a clearing a fire flickered brightly in the center
“Come and feel…” it seemed to whisper “my heat and keep your body from the winter”
I saw eight elusive creatures dancing round it and they turned liked planets
