Cold dark lane , all creepy and eerie<\/p>\n
Stinking with far gone lives now not so dearie<\/p>\n
Dust and dried leaves , all now fossils of past ,<\/p>\n
So is she , squeezed up , a bundle of match<\/p>\n
Eyes hollow , vast as infinity , beyond<\/p>\n
Deep down a match so lone , wanting to light<\/p>\n
Cold is she , cold as the frost on the fire<\/p>\n
But the fire is all dried up in a deep tire<\/p>\n
Cracks up , she strikes up , she tries to light up ,<\/p>\n
Lacks she a spark that will burn her all up.<\/p>\n
Then came he smiling , a tiny green spark ,<\/p>\n
Flew up the depths of her hollow dark eyes<\/p>\n
Lit up the match that long drenched in the ice.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
She flared up so high that the world was on fire ,<\/p>\n
Blazed up she , glared into melting weak ice<\/p>\n
Burned long , she fried up the biased old lives<\/p>\n
For she was the glory , she was the light ,<\/p>\n
She was the spark that fed the inferno.<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Cold dark lane , all creepy and eerie Stinking with far gone lives now not so dearie Dust and dried leaves , all now fossils of past , So is she , squeezed up , a bundle of match Eyes hollow , vast as infinity…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":773,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-21379","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-miscellaneous"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/thepoetrymarathon.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21379","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/thepoetrymarathon.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/thepoetrymarathon.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thepoetrymarathon.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/773"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thepoetrymarathon.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=21379"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/thepoetrymarathon.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21379\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":21502,"href":"https:\/\/thepoetrymarathon.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21379\/revisions\/21502"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/thepoetrymarathon.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=21379"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thepoetrymarathon.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=21379"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thepoetrymarathon.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=21379"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
