Storms On Fire

A new beginning

begins the end

A different octave

whose voice portends

The circle squares

as angles form

escape your memory

salvation born

A new beginning

first and last

Once you enter

the past is past

All colors exit

as black meets white

gray indifference

to lace the night

A new beginning

storms on fire

 ice is raging

 polar spires

Eight directions

up is down

Buried mantra

—transcendence found
