Chimney

Chimney

Twisting, twirling, tumbling,
Crackling, popping, sparking,
Growing without remorse
Fire
climbing up the walls
Life breathed into it
just like us all
Crushed
just for a moment
by new kindling
but roaring away
Larger now
sometimes all you need
is a little spark
to keep growing
Up
The
Chimney

Done. Finished. It’s Over.
