Fire in The Sky
By:Spekz.
Dusk begins to embezzle
The remains of the golden reign.
While faint sight struggles fear,
our fixating eyes soon glisten
Off the stilled reflective water,
Playing hand with our survival.
Silence directs our blueish lips
For we have become guests.
As darkness recites prayor
On tide to embody host
For we dine captive
To a starving night.
Lost, we prepared for amazement
Yet the only walls confining us
Hold breath, as we float.
Choking back frozen tears
Brisk air punctures a reddened chest
clothes mummify stranded humsicles .
Bodies living on the wills of their peers
fearing the night will swallow life.
Splashing waters promote energy
Hoping for a sign of savior.
The raft begins to thrash,
Tossing as though possessed.
Devil fins split the water
Turning calm tides
To hell bound currents.
Fear stuns those still breathing,
Shaking in pools of good-byes.
Few remain living now
Resting on torn rubber.
Limbs seem completely lost
Breaths sigh but barely.
One of the men decides
To pull the trigger to the heavens
Praying the fire in the sky
Will bring them the warmth
Once granted by life.
HONK…HONK
Eyes wander livid
Inside a bodied casket
Recognizing the sign of help.
A frozen smile breaks ice
To those still fighting.
Time passes as though
Traveling by glaciered tug.
As the saviors arrive
To the destination lit
By that of the fired sky
they simply relinquished hope
just as the flame of life
did for those who dined
as the meal served
to the blood chilled night.
