In praise of the Goddess

In balance

I am not in balance, but in fury,
on my way to make a start.

.
.

The scales are balanced,
my feet still gently glide,
my fury holds on to reason,
avoids being turned to pride.

.
.
.

The scales are balanced, but now in peril,
life giving flames become the danger –
only a death can even the score.

.
.
.

I take some of my burnt flesh,
I offer it up to those that are living of death –

they take what I give,
and don’t ask for more.
