A gentle flame

The Truth has some ways to hurt
unlooked for
He gives, He takes away

So cruel it seems at times
to set us free
by dragging into the open

and no chance really to explain
or put in a word for beauty
500 meters high

at a sudden burst
of anger unlooked for
the creatures stagger, wounded

calamity, collisions
hope unwound
and left away

It's not right, you know.

A gentle flame burns
quietly in the night
not that way, again
