Prometheus Soulmate (Requiem Aeternam)
All of them
Belong to you.
All of these:
Funeral pyres
Camp fires
Fire places
Forest fires
Open pits
Closed ovens
Potter kilns
Burning embers
And indeed,
The Divine fire
The burns inside
All of us,
All of these
belong to you
Your Majesty,
Prometheus.
But,
The fire within you
Is the fire we needed
Yet
You gave the flame
Without as
Our gift.
And so,
The birds of prey
Feed on your
Hubris
And
The race of humanity
Burns on your
Audacity.
Please,
Prometheus Soulmate
Come back
Once more
and
Steal their secret
Once more.
Only this time
Bring back something
different
Please.
This time,
Bring peace.
