The Web Poetry Corner - Emma - Louise Braiden - Girl-Fire

Girl-Fire

by

Emma - Louise Braiden

She walks down the
Cold cement stairs
Heavy bag, heavy burden
Long black hair flicks
Across her fire-eyes

The lashes sweep up
Opens her soul to
The prying fingers of us
As we delve
Unaware of her heat

Fire burns and dances
Engulfs their pity
Repells us to the floor
We retreat as children
Afraid for our souls

Afraid for what soul?
